Irene Kelley - Can I Tell You

CAN I TELL YOU Phillip Ehart/David Hope/Steve Walsh/Richard John Williams
The 70’s and early 80’s found me in a rock and roll band and all of my records were from that genre. First time to hear the band “Kansas” and I was hooked. Obsessed to be honest. My school chums had Bobby Sherman and David Cassidy posters lining their bedroom walls. I had a huge Kansas poster and mostly because of the violin player, Robbie Steinhardt whom I had a giant crush on. This song was their very first single and the lyrics seem to have no expiration date. Just absolutely brilliant and also what we all need to hear at this very moment in time. I wish I could say it was my idea to record this song but credit goes to my very talented and gutsy daughter, Sara Jean who said, “Mom, you just gotta”. To which I replied, “Ok, but you’re both singing with me!” How extra special to have my 2 amazing girls singing with me on this great song. Another high-five to session leader, Scott Vestal for saying, “sure, we can cut that bluegrass!”
