I drove up and over Snoqualmie Pass yesterday, up and over Blewett Pass, and down into a valley at once familiar and foreign. I have made the trip many, many times but there is a fading quality to it now; where once I belonged I am now again a stranger. But there is something that inexorably draws me and even …

Became a fan around the time of "Breezy Stories" -- "Mad Ruth/The Babe" was a masterpiece, but not the only one you'd write. Pretty sure I saw you play at Bumbershoot back in that era, but that was a long time ago....in any event, thank you for a lifetime of great music. It's meant a lot to me, as I'm sure it has to many, many others.

Ha. I saw Danny solo acoustic at Ebbets Field in Denver somewhere around 45 years ago. He did a stunning rendition of "Magdalena" that knocked everyone out. All the best DO'K.

We had met you the year before - at a concert or?? Anyway, you ended up entertaining at our wedding - unplanned. wonderful and still remembered 44 years on. And we're still together.

I remember the first time I saw and listened to - O'Keefe ... I thought, this guy does a really good job covering all these songs other people made famous .... Little, did I know. .... Hats off to you - Danny. You are - Pieces of the Rain . !!!!!!!

The year American Roulet came out.

Ahhh, we were all so young then🕶 The American Roulette album is indelibly stamped in my brain. What a tour de force in songwriting!

Good time Charlie’s got the blues

I was at that show!

Great pics. Do you remember what was on your set-list at the time. Did you do any covers (Honky Tonkin')?

Look at #9.

Love that Guild!

Good shots, Danny

Saw you on that tour in Knoxville.

Three weeks before the annual Iron Bowl, probably a packed house.

Didn't Linda sing on "So Long Harry Truman"?

And playing a Guild on top of it all....

I saw that guy open for Maria Muldaur in Seattle, in ‘76 I think, and he blew me away.

It surely was.

Really? I thought you just got a brush cut and some Lady Clairol and off you go!

Great youthful pic ...and still playing "Looking Glass and the Dreamers" .....Stunning album!!! 👌

Beautiful Guild… still have it?

Nice pictures!

Who may that young masked man?

o yea i know that guy!!!

A mere yout 😊

Dan, what a great picture. You are my last cousin. I miss John very much. Mary’s son, Bob Cunningham, passed away a month math ago. You are about out of Wisconsin relatives. I hope life is treating you well. Love and God bless. Cousin Alyce Ferguson

i recall Leonard Cohen talking about how we look as we age .. his rap points out how we go from cute to sexy to disgusting and then, eventually, back to cute ... you're there youngster ..

Hope you are well, and it would be great if you decide to do another show at Tim Noah's place in Snohomish.

Miss him TONS. 'In Northern California' is one of the greatest songs EVER.

Danny, Angel Spread Your Wings was my introduction to you and your music. I purchased Breezy Stories and fell into each song. Every song had such a deep story, and the musicians were phenomenal! You and I communicated some years ago about that album and I asked who played all the tasty guitar licks in that background and you told me it was you! I was a drummer in a traveling top 40 band in the 70s, but the guitarist and I play acoustic guitars in an opening set and always played Angel- you're and amazing songwriter and musician! Thanks for the music!

Soulful as all get out

Lovely it’s so great to see an old friend! I’m a teacher and I needed this as it cheered me up just a little. Melanie

Steel guitar. One of the all time great songs.

Brings back fond memories of hearing your music across the canyon. Hope you’re well

I've had a Danny O'Keefe song book around for 30 years, I still use it, the lp's some of my favorites I played on my radio show for 15 years....memorized and play a few of his tunes.

You look fabulous! Great photo!

Great picture!

Such a gentleman 💖

Love Danny’s work. My fav album is American Roulette. But I really adore everything else he ever released.
