Tony, this looks to have great potential as a terrific catchy 'song title'.

Stuck On You is just one great song he does but he has so many.
Nigel, thanks for the suggestion about Bobby Caldwell's music. In addition to 'Stuck on You', his terrific classic hit single: "What You Won't Do For Love" looks to be another one I may consider learning now.
Hi Paul (Montunoman), thanks for your input. I especially like the song "Morning" that you're learning by Claire Fischer. That one sounds ideal for your Latin jazz style genre specialty.
Hi Ty (Shade of Pale): You and I definitely share some song performance similarities. Though I haven't played it much recently, Buffet's "Come Monday" is in my repertoire too, so perhaps it's time to bring it back again, especially because it includes San Francisco in the lyric. The Judy Collins version of "Someday Soon" is beautiful, and a song I have wanted to include, but figured it might be too difficult to pull off solo rewriting the lyric to come from a guy's perspective. I especially love the pedal steel on that song played by no other than the pedal steel master Buddy Emmons. Ty, I'd love to hear your duo rendition (with female vocalist?) of this terrific song. Thanks also for reminding me about Van Morrison's Tupelo Honey. There is more than a ton of wonderful songs I still would love to learn and play. I hope I live long enough to learn them all.

see file attachment.
GammaCm: Do you include "I Love This Bar" in your perf repertoire. Because I no longer perform in bars any more (thank goodness), though it's certainly a catchy song, I doubt I'll be adding this one myself.
