Album Notes

This CD is dedicated to the memory of David M. Bailey, courageous troubadour of hope and faith who battled a malignant brain tumor for 14 years and finally came to rest on October 2, 2010. In life, david signed his name in lower case. We are now capitalizing David’s name in honor of a life well lived. From the time he was diagnosed in 1996, he ceaselessly wrote, sang, and spoke his faith in 23 albums, in 45 states and 5 countries, including the US, Canada, UK, Denmark & Sweden. He always did it with a sense of humor. The CD is also in honor of David’s family, Leslie, Kelcey, and Cameron who supported David in his journey.
David and Steve met at a Presbytery Pastoral Care Network (PPCN) conference and produced their first joint CD, A Deep Well for the Pastor, as a resource in PPCN’s work of caring for clergy. More information is available at www.pastoralcarenetwork.org.
David and Steve had talked about an album of humor as a second project. Bryan McFarland, independent folk-musician and hunger action advocate for Salem Presbytery, has joined Steve to complete this project using both his and David’s songs to enlarge the experience. Bryan released a new album, Until All Are Fed, with a portion of proceeds going to the Presbyterian Hunger Program. Details at www.untilallarefed.net .
