Hiya John,

I have been waiting for this tune to hit the boards :D Some good sounds and performed nicely mate .... although the style you chose went a long way to making it more enjoyable, there is sadly, not a lot one can do with this tune to improve on it's 'likability' :lol: :lol: :lol:

The piece, and I hasten to add, not your performance of it, should be banished to Room 101 :D

Thanks for sharing with us John - hope you are all keeping well ... all the best,

Mike

Good morning Mike,
Sorry if this performance has bugged you, as you say you have been waiting for it to hit the boards and with me being the one to post it, i have to say that you have taken away from me the feelings of pleasure i had doing the song. after all mate, this song has been and still is performed by so many artists, to refrain from doing it IMO would be senseless to banish it to room 101. Anyway Mike, i thank you for the kind remarks in you reply post, much appreciated. ATB. jackoj.
