Robben Ford Discussion

Welp, first of all I'm still finding myself literally grinning from RF's Buffalo show last Saturday. Very Happy

I suppose that's kinda wierd, eh?

Anyway, I'm wondering if anyone knows anything 'bout Jill Freeman (co-writer credit on Hand In Hand With The Blues) and Kevin Bowles (co-writer credit on a couple of Blue Moon tunes). I Googled both, but couldn't come up with anything. Who are these folks? Just curious.

OK, back to letting my co-workers wonder why I've been smiling this week. heheh

I really like the songs Kevin co-wrote with Robben (Don't Deny Your Love and Something for the Pain). Kevin's website is:

Kevin's recent work with Etta James (Let's Roll) won the Grammy for best blues recording this year. Kevin wrote/co-wrote 4 songs on Let's Roll.

Well, I'll be a monkey's.......!!! Isn't the internet something else!

Hi Jill & thanks for stopping by.

I'm actually just bein' kinda nosey. Hand In Hand is one of my favorite tunes... and, as far as I can tell, it's the only Robben Ford tune that credits you(?). Any other co-writing credits that forum members might know of? Any background about Hand In Hand that you'd care to share? Where does one get a copy of "Songs Of Sex and Depression" (yipes, what a title!)? Are you still performing as a solo? How'd you get hooked up with RF? If Hand In Hand is representative of your work, you've made at least one new fan. Thanks for your contribution to a great song. Great stuff!

-Mike.
