"Old Porch Swing" - performed live in the KEKB studio

• Artist: Jeff Pine
• Songwriter: Joe Allen

I personally owe Jeff a tremendous debt of gratitude for all the work he has done to support the memorial scholarship named after my grandpa. Last year, Jeff, along with fellow musicians Huey Plumleigh and Joe Allen, presented a fund raising concert, generating big bucks for the award. Special Note: The guitar Jeff performed on is the very guitar John Denver used to record the song "Some Days Are Diamonds."

First chance you get, check out some of Jeff's great recording, artwork, photography, and documentaries. More than anything,be sure to attend some of his performances at several Western Colorado venues.
