It still makes me tear up when I think about Steve and that he was gone way too soon. I have to look away from the picture of him above...I already have tears in my eyes...

Thank you. Not quite sure why, but I tear up listening to fellow artists/performers talk about Steve Goodman. Maybe it’s because they are sharing the love he gifted us with. There's something about keeping him alive in that way that moves me deeply.

I heard of Steve Goodman through Arlo Guthrie. Arlo or somebody talking about Steve Goodman and he had practiced before a show and somebody asking or saying that's what you will play tonight? Knowing Steve was too spontaneous to stick to a set list of songs. I knew of him only after he died and walked on. I love the man. Arlo got a lot for a beer that night Steve, Arlo, Jackson Browne. Good people, Steve it's great the way he lived.

He also wrote had such sweet, emotionally raw yet whimsical lyrics. I saw Steve Goodman perform live twice, in Vancouver, BC. The first show had Steve opening for another one of my favourite songwriters: John Pride. I remember after the first show, on the way up the gentle hill on West Georgia Street toward the Granville Skytrain station, (a rapid tansit station), who happens to walk toward me by the guy I'd just watch perform: Steve Goodman! Cool! I mumbled something about how I really enjoyed his set and he graciously thanked me and then was on his way walking back down Georgia toward the venue: Queen Elizabeth Theater. At the latter performance sometime in the late 1980s, Steve was the headliner and did an energetic set full of his hits and other songs he loved to play in concert settings. The crowd and I absolutely love him, of course. But sadly, you could tell from how thin he seemed that the cancer that had plagued him since his teen years had returned. I rememer his blue ball cap, posssibly to cover his hair loss due to the chemotherapy no doubt. Perhaps tit was the same lid he wore in his iconic recording of "A Dying Cub Fan's Last Request", recorded in the right field bleachers of Wrigley Field ." Which I suppose only demonstrates that, as Billy Joel wrote on his epic stranger LP: " ...only the good die young." In this case, Billy sure was right.

Steve was always coming up with lines for songs. Many times he would then put some of the lines together then completed the song. I met Steve at Mr. Kelly's in early 1971 when I was playing lap steel for Johnny Frigo and would talk and hang out after. He used to call me King Kong. I ended up playing lap steel for once in a while, he loved the sound. Because of Steve I ended up being used by John Prine and Bonnie Koloc. He was a funny guy with a dry sense of humor.

Steve wrote "The City Of New Orleans" on his way down to meet up with his future in-laws and his fiancee. The day he left on that train, he had been told by his oncologist/hematologist that he had leukemia. Imagine the emotions he must have been feeling as he took that train (of the same name). I don't think many people would have had the guts to channel their energy into such a gorgeous song with that hanging over their heads.

Found out about Steve kind of late, but some friends told me I had to hear this guy. We went to Tulagi's that night. Mimi Farina was the opener (great double bill no?) Then Steve comes out and does his set. Knocked me out, both the songs and his persona. He and Mimi did a duet on the Elton John song Daniel. Wow! I still remember that all these years later. BTW: Is that Linda Rondstadt singing in the background during the Jackson Browne interview?
