Great job on this tune ...

I have to share a story about a penny whistle ... MANY years ago, the sax player in our band, who took his sax playing craft VERY seriously - he had the closest sound to the great Paul Desmond that I ever heard - bought a penny whistle for the song "One Of Those Songs" by Jimmy Durante ... one night after he played that song, someone came up and said "Man, you did a great job with that penny whistle" ... the sax player smiled and thanked the guy ... as we were loading the van after the gig, he took the penny whistle out of his pocket and threw it as far as he could ... we looked in amazement and he said "I've worked for years getting my sax playing to where I it is, and I get complimented on a PENNY WHISTLE?!? ... I'll NEVER play it again!!! " ... and he never did ... laugh2

But as I said, you did a great job ...


Thanks, Tony!

Poor sax player! grin On the bright side, at less than $10.00 penny whistles are affordable to throw out. I cringe at the thought of tossing a saxophone. They're kind of pricy!

Thanks for listening,
Dan

Edit: Thanks to you too, Donny!
