A video I produced about the disappearing family farms in my area, and the resulting rural decay. Townes Van Zandt provides the words, Jay Farrar & Kelly Willis the music. A "tribute to a tribute" to Townes. A refreshing absence of politics in this beautiful song.
"Special streamline" by Bukka (Booker) White ca. 1939. Unfortunately, the master recording of this was damaged at some point. Video produced by yours truly... not label sanctioned or official in any capacity.
An expansion of a PBS promo, inspired by a recent visit to Washington, DC. This uses the entire "John Dunbar theme" by John Barry, and focuses squarely on our nation's capital, unlike the :30 PBS version.
Son Volt's cover of "She's more to be pitied" by the Stanley Brothers. One of my all-time favorite songs, cover or not. Video produced by yours truly... not label sanctioned or official in any capacity.
3 rural changes in season, highlighted by instrumental selections from Gob Iron's "Death songs for the living" record. Gob Iron is Jay Farrar and Anders Parker. Video produced by yours truly... not label sanctioned or official in any capacity.
A repurposed & reimagined animation I worked on for a client, set to a portion of Wilco's "Either way", from the Sky blue sky album. Video produced by yours truly: not label sanctioned or official in any capacity. For a much better, non YouTube compressed version, visit:

If you are old enough to remember the Franklin Mint commercial for the "Civil War Chess Set", you also remember that it ran in nearly every commercial break on your independent TV station for 2 excruiating years. I had the stupid thing memorized. Here's Robert Klein's send-up of the offer, music & video layed in by yours truly.
(Fan video) A cautionary tale about obsessing over old alt-country ghosts.
