	This song is exactly what the title says. A reflection back to those less troubled times when life seemed pretty simple. I wrote this song with Darius Gakas.

	Story Behind the Song Darius had A fist full of "Good Ol'Days" reflective lyrics and a rough melody and asked me if I could arrange it and tailor the song into a Country Rock/Soul type feel. So I did! I invited legendary slide guitar player Kirk Lorange to play on the track and of course he made it sound great. Thanks Kirk. I might add here that all of the songs on my page here are available for others to cover.
