Track from folk singer-songwriter Deborah Silverstein's 1987 LP Around The Next Bend, released on Flying Fish Records.

From Deborah Silverstein's website (www.debobiz.com):

"Deborah has been a fixture on the Boston area acoustic music scene since the mid-70’s when she was a founding member of the New Harmony Sisterhood Band. She went on to perform with the bluegrass band, Fire On The Mountain, before breaking onto the national scene with her solo album, “Around the Next Bend,” on the Flying Fish/Rounder Label. Following that, Deborah had an initial 9 year stint with the 4-woman a capella quartet, Taproot. In addition to her solo album, Deborah recorded two albums with Taproot, “If You Build It” and “Grand Design.” Both contain many of her original compositions. One of these, “Draglines,” about strip mining in hometown Western PA, has become an environmental anthem recorded by numerous other artists.

Deborah currently performs with her Band of Erics: Eric Wells contributing guitar and harmony vocals, Eric Levenson on acoustic bass, Art Schatz on fiddle, and (occasionaly) Eric Kilburn on mandolin and dobro.

In the spring of 2016, Deborah released Precious Time, a new album of all original compositions. Backed up by the Band of Erics along with numerous local Boston stand out studio musicians. Precious Time is available through CD Baby."

You can find more information about Deborah on her website, including song lyrics, photos, and any shows she may be performing. It looks like she was playing regularly up until the beginning of 2020. ---
