The Music At Night
 Listening to the
music at night in Bean Blossom Park was such a treat. The sound
was perfect in the heavy evening air coming through the trees.
I recall a particular time when Mr. Monroe sang "The Old,
Old House" and on the chorus dropped his voice down to almost
a whisper. It was so still you could hear every word clearly
and almost see the scene he was singing about-all that emotion
in his music was very inspiring to this would-be musician. When
I heard him singing "I'm On My Way Back to the Old Home"
it instantly became my favorite Bill Monroe song and still is.
