He&#8217;d criscrossed the country a few times from that vantage, and on one trip East found a used Martin D-40 parked on a Guitar Center Wall that had the boom of the Taj Mahal and a feel worth the 3 grand price tag and more. He didn&#8217;t pick it up at that time, instead thinking it best to focus on the relationship he was in, put 20$ down on it to hold it for a few weeks and forgot about it. Once back in California, the relationship went south almost immediately and Cray doubled back to Philadelphia, drove 2600 miles over the course of a few days and bought the D-40 outright. Oh, Bron Yr Aur was always in the practice cannon, but other songs were written that hopefully get to see the light of day in the years to come, like &#8220;She Walks All Over You&#8221; (actually a very Grateful Dead Hippy Happy Hoppy Song). But in retrospect, memories are stored in the miles of a life, and they resonate on the tone of the woods on that guitar. Not every D-40 ever built has that magic, but this one did. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Bron Yr Aur - Written By Jimmy Page, Performed By Cray Morrison\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-Yb_KMVTRaM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption>Bron Yr Aur &#8211; Written By Jimmy Page, Performed By Cray Morrison<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Probably as close to 2006, 2007 timeframe, Cray was parked in Cayucus and Morro Bay, California Area.
