1. Kenny was my first "boyfriend"!

I was seven years old when Sitttin’In was released. I remember telling my dad how much I loved Kenny and I was going to marry him…my dad told me that Kenny was too old for me and I just didn’t understand that at the tender age of 7.

When I graduated high school at 17, my mom’s best friend’s son, Bill, told me Kenny would be in concert in Berkeley and suggested I should fly down to see him and we would go to the concert together. I thought I was so smart and bought a one way ticket to San Francisco without telling my folks. I had no plan other than to see the concert. Bill picked me up at the airport, took me to my grandmother’s in San Mateo and the jig was up. Grandma called my dad who wasn’t very impressed with my plan. I saw the concert and then had to get a part time job to earn the money to get home while I lived with my grandma.

Totally worth it.

2. What a great story!

I’m glad you got to see the concert at any rate! I’m totally envious! He came around here to do a show years ago and I wanted to see him so badly but unfortunately at the time I was going through chemo and no way would I have been able to get there.

Kenny was one of my many musician crushes back then, too. I still love him to this day. This song of his will bring me to tears. It’s about a lost love.

3. I consider myself a super fan and

I have never heard this song! It’s beautiful. Thank you for posting it.

We played this song at our wedding…clearly I married someone else, not Kenny.

4. Oh, wow. I love it

I have never seen this video, either. Thanks for sharing, MM! So perfect for a wedding.

I think Kenny could sing the phone book and I’d love it.
