Going Back To Tucson


I'm heading to Tucson next week for the Division of Planetary Sciences Meeting. Since I spent a big chunk of my 20s in Tucson between grad school and a postdoc job, I am naturally feeling a bit sentimental.

I wrote a lot of music during my time in Tucson, played in several bands, recorded The Red Album there as well as stuff on the ol' 4-track. The city even worked its way into the lyrics of at least one song.  So I thought I'd dash something off here to mark the upcoming trip.

While "Going Back to Tucson" would have been a great choice, I couldn't find any chords. I seriously considered "Sweetheart" by Caitlin and the Stickponies. But in the end I figured I'd record one by The Sidewinders (aka The Sand Rubies).

So here's another one-take acoustic guitar and voice wonder for all my Old Pueblo pals:
Came On Like The Sun
