Now this is one track with a good story behind it….Our friend Adam Feder stormed into the house one good day and asked Luis to transcribe Larry Campbell’s terrific violin solo in Richard Schindell’s song Spring. It wasn’t easy… The melody just sort of kicks and jumps and there were so many gorgeous flourishes to tackle! But he did, and in the end we liked it so much that we decided to include it in our show and started playing it live just for kicks. To our immense surprise, Larry Campbell himself happened to be performing with us at one of those shows (with Dan Zanes and Jorma Kaukonen at Merkin Hall in New York City) and he was as surprised that we had taken the time to transcribe and learn his solo as we were to finally meet him!

Esta canción tiene mucha historia….. lo que pasó fue que nuestro amigo Adam le pidió a Luis que transcribiera el solo de violín que Larry Campbell grabó en la canción Spring de Richard Schindell. No era cosa fácil: El solo pareciera brincar como pescado fuera del agua y hay muchos recovecos y adornos que capturar. Pero lo logró, y al final acabó gustándonos tanto, que lo incluimos en el repertorio y lo tocábamos cada vez que había ocasión. Para nuestra grata sorpresa, en una de tantas terminamos tocando con el mismísimo Larry Campbell (en un concierto en Merkin Hall en Nueva York, con Dan Zanes y Jorma Kaukonen), quien se halló tan sorprendido de que nos hubiéramos aprendido su solo ¡como nosotros de finalmente poder conocerlo en persona!

lyrics

~ ~ SPRING ~ ~

By Richard Schindell
From the album: Somewhere Near Paterson

The day will begin like any other
Another sunrise in the east
It will reach across and touch you like a lover
It will tease you from a dream

And opening your eyes you will surrender
To the light that fills the room
And the hope that you have carried since September
You will offer up to June

Maybe will be certain
You can take it as a vow
Winter's just the curtain
Spring will take the bow

Looking out your window you will wonder
At the blooming in the yard
And every opening flower will be a mirror
Of the quickening in your heart

Maybe will be certain
You can take it as a vow
Winter's just the curtain
Spring will take the bow

The day will begin like any other
Another sunrise in the east
It will reach across and touch you like a lover
It will tease you from a dream
You won't remember

Maybe will be certain
You can take it as a vow
Winter's just the curtain
Spring will take the bow

ESPAÑOL

◔_◔

~ ~ PRIMAVERA ~ ~

Por: Richard Schindell
Del disco: En algún lugar cerca de Paterson

El día comenzará como cualquiera
Con otro amanecer desde el oriente
y te acariciará como a un amante
a quien se seduce suavemente desde un sueño

Y abriendo los ojos te rendirás
A la luz que inunda la habitación
Y la esperanza que llevas en ti desde septiembre
la harás nacer en junio

Los tal veces serán ciertos
eso te lo prometo
El invierno es sólo un telón
para lo que nos espera en primavera

Mirando por la ventana te preguntarás
qué es aquello que florece en el jardín
y en cada flor que se abra habrá un espejo
del latido inquieto de tu corazón

Los tal veces serán ciertos
eso te lo prometo
El invierno es sólo un telón
para lo que nos espera en primavera

El día comenzará como cualquiera
Con otro amanecer desde el oriente
y te acariciará como a un amante
a quien se seduce suavemente desde un sueño

Los tal veces serán ciertos
eso te lo prometo
El invierno es sólo un telón
para lo que nos espera en primavera
