For the past several months, various members of the Old Crow Book Club had told me urgently that I had to meet Keith, a semi homeless young man roaming the neighborhood, in his late teen or early 20s.
Keith IS a guitar and song writing prodigy, as I’ve personally witnessed for many years. More important, he’s a great person with a kind and caring heart. Whatever he puts his mind to, he’s succeeded at. In High School, he picked up Crew and became one of the top Coxswains in the country, making the US National team and representing USA in the Junior World Championships in Germany. He was recruited by the top colleges and was a Division 1 athlete for the national champs before leaving school to pursue a career as a musician. He’s written dozens of songs, recorded a couple unreleased albums, and hopefully he can get back to making more great music, or whatever in life makes him happy. The sky is the limit if he can remove any obstacles in his way. He has so much to offer to so many. I’m his Father and he may get mad at me for sharing this, but it’s all true.

I love it. I haven't seen the name "Sal Mineo" in print in at least thirty years!
