[ukeshale]

beautiful. one of my all time favourite songs. perfect!

[doogey9]

thanks Shane,

I love it too......there are a lot of really great songs from that period and earlier....good positve message etc.

there's a tune entitled "april showers" that I want to learn that's in this same category....

[ukeshale]

i know the song. there's a mel torme version on youtube :)

[benmealer]

I was going to say something about how its amazing that all these positive and encouraging songs came out at a time when people had it so hard and so many people were out of work. People needed an escape and great songs like this gave it to them.

[doogey9]

I agree Ben.....a lot similar going on right now it seems.....I'm all for great escapes, encouragement, etc. :)

[mjs004]

Just Wonderful!! Todd! Still waiting for the punk skiffle...

[doogey9]

Mjs,

thanks friend....man I hope YT caught my comment on your spinal tap song, cuz as I said, "put your foot throught the hotel wall" rockin'

sometime soon, I will do a punk skiffle song, I just need the right tune to seize me....it will....

[weegingayin]

Luis Prima... is that who insipred the mouth trumpet?

Do you happen to know his

Banana split for my baby

A glass of plain water for me.

Now that would be a great song to cover

[doogey9]

Hi Weegingayin,

mouth trumpet is just me bring resourceful with 'what I've got' i guess....

gonna have to check out the other song....

haven't fortgot about the chord/hammer on explanation thing.... :)

[doogey9]

love it.....one that I read last year was:

'do what you can, with what you've got, right where you're at.'

-dunno

[weegingayin]

What's the use of two good legs if you only run away

What's the use of the finest voice if you've nothing good to say

What good is strength and muscle if you only push and shove

And what's the use of two good ears if you can't hear those you love

[SirCoughsalot]

A great song, to be sure.

[doogey9]

Hey Sir,

thanks man! hope all is well...have you posted any of your own vids yet?

todd

[SirCoughsalot]

[BarleyC]

As always, a gem!

[doogey9]

Thank you Sir Colin :)

someday you're gonna have to sit with me and share with me how you come up with some of the chord patterns you use for your songs :)
