This song is by Stephen Foster, the great American songwriter from the nineteenth century. He's also the author of Camptown Races and Oh Susannah. I like Willie Nelson's version.
Supposedly, out of the hundreds of songs Foster wrote (including "The Old Folks At Home " and "My Old Kentucky Home"), this one was his favorite. Quite a haunting tune.

I'll echo the "fun in concert" comment, although that doesn't help many people who aren't on the east coast. And yes, I'd love to hear more Eddie...so many good songs here. "10,000 Sarahs", "Old Dominion", and we could go on...excellent music! Believe it or not, I never noticed the Ani resemblence before; I heard Julie before I heard Ani. But you're right, it is a bit uncanny. Not that it's a bad thing.

Fellow's a great guitarist, and a good songwriter...I like "Rocky Boat" and "Holy Sunlight" off this CD a bit better, but they're all good. Nah, Steven alone doesn't sound the same as Burlap used to, but still good. Me gusta.

Agreed -- excellent song, excellent CD. Steven Delopolous (singer/guitar) alone is very good as well (although I don't see him in the list...i may have spelled it wrong). Extremely talented bunch.
