Fred Westover was my friend Garner Pruitt’s Uncle Freddy and he liked to write songs. He used to send songs to me to tweak and record. This is what I came up with for San Carlos Bay.
I’ve known Garner since I was one year old. He is a great trumpet player and a great friend. Check out his website: Garner Pruitt. I sent the song, with vocals and guitar, to Garner and he added the rest.
Uncle Freddy took the song that Garner and I had recorded and made a video to show to the founder of San Carlos Bay, whom he knew, to see if they wanted to use the song for marketing tourism, and pay us some royalties. Unfortunately that didn’t happen.
