10: Songs of Ben Bullington
In the last 3 months of Bens life I started sending iPhone recordings of me singing a song of his - the first iphone recording, Ive Gotta Leave You Now, closes this album - this recording is what Ben heard - he loved it...(what I wanted was for Ben to hear his songs coming toward him rather than only from him - for a writer, it is an important perspective: to hear songs with 1 degree of separation - like you re hearing someone else s songs). 3 days in Dirk Powell s studio & home in Breaux Bridge, Louisiana in November, 2014 while on the road, 8 songs were recorded simply - no tricks, no hiding just me & engineer, Erick Jaskowiak- add a live version of Country Music Im Talking To You from Texas gigs the week before- add the iPhone recording he d heard and you get 10. My wish is for you to slow down for 52 minutes, put this recording on and hear 2 friends make new friends - I believe there is pure beauty here - these songs are perfect examples of song as literature - 10 is an intimate gift for a fellow father and human being and songwriter whom I knew for a short, but powerful, time - Bens songs are timeless - I loved getting right in the middle of these songs and offering my best - these are great songs: period. -Darrell Scott
