How does this golden-voiced man encapsulate so perfectly the life of a prairie farmer? I am in in amazement as would be my father and grandfather.

The sweet pain of hard work and the uncertainy that reward is coming.Hope and faith and the green thumb of life.

My father once told me that a farmer's life is grand, because when he goes home he has the satisfaction of measuring with his eye how much he has accomplished that day, and how much acreage is left for tomorrow. You can look back and take visual pleasure at how much you have achieved.Working in an office, he said, you switch off your computer and you're tired, but you cannot measure with your eye what you have done. Even though you might feel good about your day, there will seldom be the same sense of accomplished satisfaction as when you've worked the ground.He taught me to plough when I was just a kid. The old McCormick tractor boiled after a while and my dad said we've just decreased the remaining life of the engine, but we got the work done all the same. The smell of diesel fumes, and the satisfaction of seeing the task complete made it one of those grand jobs that I will never forget.We don't realize how short short the good times until they're over. Now I switch a computer off and go home when I'm done. He never said anything about this as he watched me work, but I knew he knew I was thinking about his words often. I think of them even more every time I listen to this beautiful song that paints that old picture in my mind all over again.

I believe that line, "Put another season's promise in the ground" is the most beautiful, descriptive line I've ever heard about what a farmer does. He really had a way with words.

A great song, by a creative force in the folk song era. This song is a fine example. I can't think of a deeper song writer, who had a stunning sense of melody. His humanity reveals a deep sense of justice, insight into the human condition, and earthy humor and love for his fellow humanity. I love this man's music. Yes, he died too soon.

Musicians are very special people who have been blessed to endure the many hours of practice and failure. Never giving up for the love. Stan is with God.

As a kid i would sit on the wheel guard of the tractor as it pulled the plough and furrowed the field. I guess the fields in mid wales were somewhat smaller than the ares described here' I was alone harrowing a field and it poured. This songs takes me back I have all the Albums and made a p[lgramage to Stanfest and met Nathan and caught him on tour in London at the Herga Nathan is the guardian of his inheritance
