    I've posted this on the Song-A-Week group but, as it's tenor guitar, I hope a little duplication won't be minded...

    One of my favourite tunes from that golden period running from around 1900 to 1925. This is from the pen of Ernie Burnett and was written in 1912. It was first sung by William Frawley and, if you've ever seen "I Love Lucy", you'll remember that William Frawley and Vivian Vance were Lucy and Desi's neighbours... The tenor guitar was made for my in 2009 by Ian Chisholm. I'm playing it as a tenor guitar/guitar duet in the key of C. Music, tenor guitar tabs and guitar chords are available from my website: http://www.mjra.net/WillFly/tabs.shtml.

    Once again you really capture a mood and a feel not just for the tune but for the period it comes from. Lovely tone and balance. Super version, Will.
