What happened at the beginning that was so funny??

[JimmyRaney]

We had just finished speaking with Johnny Smith on the phone and Gene was playing my Johnny Smith guitar saying that he hoped that there were some of Johnny's notes still in there.

didn't the ventures do this song? and also name an album walk don't run?

[guraknugen]

Yes, once in 1960, then in 1964 ("Walk Don't Run '64") and again in 1999 ("Walk, Dont Run 2000"). They also recorded it in 1969, 1977 and 1980 (three different versions, for example the disco version of 1977).

A very nice tribute to The Great Johhny Smith.

A true GrandMaster of jazz guitar! Thanks for posting..

[obitsrus]

this was just great. I have never heard this one. I grew up on this stuff, dad was a jazz pianist. The band would practice during the week right outside my bedroom door. What a lullaby! Thanks for posting this.
