Summary

In his new album, "What I See," Clive Romney artfully connects the present with the past and shows us what we're missing if our hearts are not yet "turned to the fathers."

Click here to listen to this week's audio interview.

For decades, Clive Romney has been a solid session player, writer, producer, recording engineer, arranger and performer in the Utah music scene, but it wasn't until a change of heart in his 50s that he found what he describes as his true calling in life.

In this audio interview, Clive tells both personal and universal stories that show the richness a connection with our ancestors can add to our lives. And, like most good guys in Westerns, you can always pick out Clive in a crowd; he's the one wearing the white hat.

That's this week on The Cricket and Seagull.
