Music pick: Randy Travis

Aside from any song by Hank Williams (1923-1953) or George Jones (1931-2013) I find most country music predictable and boring. Once in awhile a gem appears and "Look heart, no hands", by featured artist Randy Travis from 1992 is one. Pretty melody, killer lyric and perfect voice combine to create an amazing song linking the magic of adult love to the magic of youthful adventure. Sadly, Travis' recent life hasn't mirrored the song, turning into a bad ride down 2 Mile Hill with no one to break his fall as he now lies near death from heart failure and a stroke at age 54.
