Dog Days

Well, it has been over two months since Santana died.  He was truly the best friend I could have asked for.  I vowed to honor his memory with a song, and I chose to use the music I was writing on the night that he died as the basis for his song.

Here's a link; check it out, and let me know what you think.  "Santana"

I guess I'm pretty lucky that I happened to be writing a catchy pop tune that night, rather than a weird Zappa-esque instrumental.  It would be hard to honor a great dog with anything less than a great song.  Santana was a simple guy with simple tastes and motivations, and I'm glad that didn't get clouded by the tribute I wrote to him.  We didn't call him a big dumb lug for nothing!



Oh, by the way -- tomorrow we get to pick up our new puppy, Satch!

Dog Days indeed!
