Performer debuts co-written song "A Matter of Time" and covers Jimi Hendrix
Summary
The musician introduced a co-written song, "A Matter of Time," crediting Dorothy O'Brien, and said the set included a cover of Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing."
During a Missoula performance the musician introduced a song called "A Matter of Time," saying it was the only track on the disc that was co-written with Dorothy O'Brien. "This is the, the only song that's on the disc that was co written. And, it was co written by a friend of mine, Dorothy O'Brien," the performer said.
The musician explained O'Brien "had a poem that she had been saving for a long time and had never put some music to it," and that they collaborated on setting it to music. The remarks attribute songwriting credit to O'Brien and describe the origin as a poem later set to music.
Later in the set the performer said the band struggled to choose a cover and that a bandmate, Don, suggested performing Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing." "Don says, 'Don't you do Little Wing?'", the performer said, adding, "So we're gonna do a Jimmy Hendrix song, which is kind of fitting because, definitely 1 of my, influences. This is Little Wing." The transcript used the spelling "Jimmy Hendrix"; the widely recognized spelling is Jimi Hendrix, which is used here for accuracy.
No publishing arrangements, rights clearances, or official credits beyond the performer's on-stage statements were discussed during the set.
