TWO new S&G songs audios
#1
Cloudy - Michael Johnson & Ted Sherman duet
Mike at Kuehn's 6/9/1968
Background: Ted was Michael's lifelong best friend, writer of "Troubled For You", co-writer of "Wilson Girl" with MJ and Mark Henley. He still resides in Denver.
This was recorded at The Kuehn's residence; they're a family in Wisconsin, friends of MJ's. Laurie Kuehn was a 13 year old when she co-wrote "Circus" with MJ, with help from John Denver. MJ's "Annie's First Rain" was written about Annie Kuehn. Many more to come from this recording session.

Bridge Over Troubled Water - In Concert at the College Inn in Denver, CO April 25, 1970
As I say in the YouTube description, he was projecting for the concert audience rather than recording a demo.

This is the 3rd and 4th in a YouTube series of Simon & Garfunkel/Paul Simon songs.
If I can find the cassette with him singing Koachrome in a Sioux Falls dressing room in 1975, I'll upload it, too. If not, this will conclude the S&G series. It's a huge bummer I don't have a recording of him singing "American Tune," which just happens to be my favorite Paul Simon song. He performed it at the Guthrie in Minneapolis in June 1974. Big Grin
