Don and I were gabbing on the telephone a few days ago about fishing, of course music came into the conversation, too. Talked about doing some more John Denver songs, and he said "You should probably do 'My Sweet Lady' - it would go well with your voice.

As usual, I listened to him (He's pretty damned smart, but I wouldn't tell him that). My wife loves the song, my daughter loves the song, so I sat down at the S-950 and gave it a try.

Here ya go! My Sweet Lady

Let me know what you think - I really do appreciate any and all constructive criticism.

Gary

Gary I think you should let Don make your song list up. He'd do a Heck of a job. Oh and you did good too.

If Don didn't already have a good job, beautiful wife and nice home in the sunny south I would bring him up here to be my agent. Like I said, he's pretty damned smart, but I would never put that in print.

Thanks for listening and commenting, Boo,

Gary

Well, if you don't TELL my wife, I could be, get ready for it,
SECRET AGENT MAN.
Seriously Gary, you work more jobs in a month than I do most of the year these days.
I enjoyed your rendition of the song. You changed it enough to "make it our own" as they say on the reality shows. Nice style on the Yamaha.

Thanks Don - I really appreciate that. And I won't tell Susan about Secret Agent Man.

Always nice to get applause from Donny, too.

Gary

Gary, I never heard that song but it does suit you quite well. In fact, I think it's one of your best vocals I heard from you. Thanks for sharing!

BTW, what style is that? It sounds real good.

I generally dislike anything John Denver ever did, but I have a regular who really likes this song. I do it for her as a straight ahead swing tine instrumental, walking bass and all. It's her all-time favorite version, she says.

Works for her, and I avoid wanting to get sick before the tune ends (LOL)!

Gary... nice job, as always ...




Russ ... you are TOO funny, man ... ... but I would love to hear your version ...

Good job, Gary...like your arrangement and choice of style (Acoustic8BeatBld).

Singing is fine as always.
