The Other Side of Your Heart (NOTE:  It may appear that there are several seconds of dead air at the beginning of the following recording.  Actually, this was my demo of the song, recorded in Spring, 1978 at Kajac Studio in Carlisle, Iowa.  If you listen very closely at high volume, you may hear the voice of the late producer Lenny Shaw introducing the song.  "The Other Side of Your Heart" was ultimately recorded on a 45 by Lisa Gossett of Urbandale, and received some radio play in Florida and other places.)    Listen to Music
