The Latest CD from
Bill Jones, released August, 2004
Featuring three
personal stories for all ages
|
Track List
1. "The Canoe Trip" 32:15
2. "Crossing Chaffee Street" 9:29
3. "Going Home For The Last Time" 16:21
It isn't how long
the journey lasts, but what we learn on the way that
really matters. In "The Canoe Trip" Bill Jones tells how a young boy
who didn't like camping ended up going on a 19 day canoe trip in the
Canadian Wilderness. In "Crossing Chaffee Street", we hear Bill's
Easter Story. "Going Home For The Last Time" is Bill's tribute to his
father (and his only real true ghost story).

Bill Jones says,
"When I was a little boy, my mama used to say, 'Don't
you tell a story!' She meant I should not tell a lie. But as I have
grown
older, I've discovered that storytelling is not always lying; sometimes
stories are the best way to tell the truth."

When storyteller
Bill
Jones was
a little boy, he was a very little boy. His stories on this CD touch on
universal themes while they evoke very particular memories of childhood
in a small town when Eisenhower was President, television was black and
white, and school started the day after Labor Day.
