Thanks everyone. I really a lot of John Denver songs, and so does my audiences. Don has another for me to work on, which I hope to try later this evening after I come home from the second job of today. Russ, I would love to hear a swing version of this one - I'll bet you really put a great touch of jazz on it.

Cheers,

Gary cool

Gary, do you do anything by Boz Scaggs?

You could pull it off really well. I believe you have that "warmth" in your voice.

Great well known tune by Boz below. It's from the movie Urban Cowboy.

I'm BIG TIME into Boz music. Do a lot of his material at many of my venues.

Running now, but hope this is the version with the unbelievable ending by two female singers.

This is the one with the singers, Russ. I do this tune and another by him called "We're All Alone". He is an incredible writer.

"We're All Alone" was also covered by Rita Coolidge and it was a big very big hit for her. It was the version I heard first, which then brought me into looking for more of Boz Scaggs tunes.

Gary, I didn't mean to drift off topic...sorry.

It's just that I think the above tune would suit you.

I gotta go with the Cap on this one. I generally don't care for John Denver songs either.

I've always loved Annie's Song, and perform it regularly. Great chord progression with that song too.

Gary ... I think you have to fix the typo to "Annie's Song"
