The River Turned Red
Songwriter: Selwyn Birchwood
Publishing: Selwyn Birchwood Music, BMI

Recorded live at Brookdale Public Radio's WBJB-FM (1/20/2015) by Jeff Raspe

I'm very excited to be selected to be part of this compilation. The song selected, "The River Turned Red," is a standout in the version on my album because I have my friend Joe Louis Walker playing slide guitar on the track. When I was in the studio, I thought to myself, "I want to do a crazy, out of this world, spacey, Joe Louis Walker kind of slide solo." I was lucky enough to have him do just that.

"It was really cool to be able to perform this song solo. I rarely get to do acoustic performances, so this was kind of special. I think there's beauty in the nakedness and vulnerability of just a man and a guitar. It's very cool." ~ Selwyn Birchwood
