I've Seen It Both Ways (Original feat. Gabe Terracciano)

With everything still set up for "The Race Is On" (except for one dead light), Gabe and I decided we weren't done playing, and he asked if I had any originals I wanted to perform. I had this on hand as a draft from the week before, so we cut it. This year has been a very, very challenging one for me in terms of mental health and physical health (my back issues), so I suppose I was reflecting on that.

    Just to show how far from it’s roots that country music has strayed. I’m a 77 year old man and I know time and music will change but how can the world not recognize the purity of this country music. Carson and his friends are producing the best songs and are not getting the recognition they deserve. Hang in there people ,with talent like this its bound to come back. Thanks Carson-You’re the best.

    This is a beautiful song. I remember asking Carson if he had any original tunes he wanted to record and he said this one wasn’t finished yet but we could give it a try. As soon as I’d heard it through I thought it sounded like someone wrote a sequel to “Together Again” by Buck Owens. It’s difficult to add a second voice into a song that already has such a strong identity, but I was happy to try my best. Always grateful to make music with you, dude!

    Carson, this is the shit!! Willie, Ray Price, The Possum, Patsy Cline... They all haunt this song and live within it! This song is indeed finished! Anything added would be a detraction. Gabe is not only a smart man, but a damn fine fiddle player (understatement)! Together you guys are money!! Keep after it!!!

    Great tune! I'm a Bluegrass guy so I'm a somewhat partial to the C&W, Bluegrass and Old Time. As to the other issues. It's tough to be vulnerable...takes some juevos. I'll share a smidge. I'm 64. By all accounts, I suppose I've had some good success. Great kids (your age or so) who have been pretty successful musicians as well as professionals. Cool grandkids. A great 41 year marriage. Pretty close to the top position in my state for my profession. Now hear this: I STILL HIT EMOTIONAL TROUGHS. I still hit the, "Well, you could of, would have, should have." I have to fight through, knowing that it will pass. In the meantime, what do I do? I make myself get up and get out (seeking interaction which is what I don't want while in the trough). I try to encourage others. I consistently exercise including hiking, jogging and strength training. I am alcohol and drug free. I do everything possible to keep some elements of routine. I eat right. I continue to play music but resist the urge to "sink" into it expecting the reflection to extract me. I pray...yes pray. I'm sounding like a dad to his kid...can't help it. In any case. Hope something useful arises from the discourse. Keep moving forward my friend.

    You should be very proud of this one. What a simple and profound melody. I always say “a well-written song induces synesthesia.”, and this song definitely made me see and feel the excitement and heartbreak of life’s ups and downs. I’ve felt them both my brother.
