I saw Harry live at ... ( 2 weeks ago by bballqt3000)

I saw Harry live at event in the 70's called the Missippi River Festival on the Illinois side of St. Louis. He came out with a guitar a cup of coffee and a stool and kept us all enthralled with his music for well over 2 hours. He was a true classic American artist. This song brings tears to my eyes that I can't explain, but I'm sure Harry would find the words to describe why.

Absolutely brilliant, just as I remember his live performances back in the 70's. Anyone know if the video of one of his concerts in Toronto is available in euro-format dvd?

Forgot to say, how ... ( 1 week ago by JCBdigger50)

Forgot to say, how come 200,000+ of you have watched this but only 40,000+ have watched the SEQUEL video which was the follow-up to this song? He wrote it 7-8 yrs later after he became famous and it's a great follow-up story. There's even a reference in the last verse to "life is a circle", the song he wrote that became a big hit for the New Seekers.

You're right about ... ( 1 week ago by heybulas)

You're right about the "Circle". Its a song he wrote. I heard it in 1978 at Lafayette, IN (Purdue U.). I was a football player at a small college up north, St. Joseph's. Thanks for bringing up the "Circle". Billy A.
