“A Song for Alice” represents impressions of Alice Stuart, singer and guitar player who Nathan would listen to at the Freight and Salvage Coffee House on San Pablo in the 1970s.

“Penelope Waltz” reflects a hopeless infatuation with a tall beautiful lady who worked at Lundberg’s Guitar on Dwight Way.

“Shamen Garden” speaks of an almost romance with Nathan’s friend who worked for Rolling Stone magazine as a photographer.

“My Grandfather” relates stories from his mother about his grandfather who left escaped the Motherland in 1906 and settled in Massachusetts. (Written in 2013).

After graduating from UC Berkeley with a degree in philosophy, Nathan Spooner made his living playing street music on Telegraph Avenue from 1970 to 1975.   After 40 years of carrying these songs in suitcases through Berkeley, San Francisco, Oregon, Alaska and back to California, Nathan finally settled in a great location on the Central Coast of California to record and release this album of missives that captures some of the adventurous spirit of those times.  This collection includes tales of true love, friendships and adventure.  Some songs are from the 1970-1980 era, some from last month.
