For Heath and so many other young lives cut short way too soon

This is an amazing song, performed by another amazing talent, Cissy Houston, mother of Whitney. It starts at 2:55 (I skip the first one - maybe one of these days I'll actually listen to it, but I'm always too eager to get to "Cajun Moon"). The flutist is Herbie Mann, and she did this song as a guest vocalist on one of his albums. Enjoy:

YouTube - Memory of River Phoenix
The above link is for a YouTube video featuring Ellis Paul's tribute song for River Phoenix. Ellis Paul is one of my favorite performers that I first saw at the Kerrville Folk Festival.
