About This Song

About "Ode To Billie Joe" by Howard Roberts

Roberts turns the tragic 'Ode To Billie Joe' into a wordless guitar meditation. Without lyrics, the melody becomes a ghostly narrativeβ€”each bent note a ripple in the muddy Tallahatchie River. The guilt and mystery linger in the spaces between chords, haunting and unresolved.
