I know the way

” I know the way” painted with acrylics on canvas board by Sanford Ross Bender In June, 2001.
“I know the way” composed, performed, and recorded with concertina and guitar (rearranged without mandolin) by Sanford Ross Bender on September 17, 2022

I just uploaded the original version of “I know the way” prior to having added the mandolin part posted last week. At that time, I had decided to let the mandolin part become more prominent. The guitar and concertina parts threaded in and out from the background with only intermittent assertions in accompaniment. Such richness of barely heard voices are revealed when a single dominating presence sifts into silence! SRB
