Re: Oldie But Goodies

that is a great song, Old Doll.  I learned that one sometime back.  Pretty easy to play.
here is one, not technically an oldie, but an older song, none the less.  I played this one for my daughter before she got married last year and she said, "Dad, you have to play that at my wedding.  With a little hesitation, I did.  It came out great.  it is one of bruce Springsteens more beautiful songs.

Re: Oldie But Goodies

Not fer nuthin, but this thread would be a lot easier to follow if participants listed the name of the song in the post!

For me, YouTube sometimes takes forever to load.  To keep switching from this discussion board to YouTube.com for every single post takes way too long.  How 'bout it, folks????

PapaTom - A little computer trick you might find handy. If you hold the Ctrl key while clicking the link, it will open the link as a new tab and still keep chordie open and running. That way you can still browse the forum while the video loads.

That's my buddy, Vito Piccone.  They sound better than ever performing that song today!

If you like that one, you must also like The Mystics' "Hushabye."

I like Linda also.  I just enjoy looking for songs you haven't heard, Old Doll.  I'll try to come up with some more.

Gene Pitney, Liberty Valence.

I used to go see this guy when he appeared here.. One of my friends was absolutely besotted with him, all her life it seems.

He did grace us with a good show, i must say.

here's a 60's favorite of mine.

Long John Badrey. Let the heartache begin.

I used to sing that song as part of my rep with the group.
Those days are so good to think about.
