Thread Name: Lyr Req: Amelia's Waltz
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Amelia's Waltz
Turns out we spoke with Bob McQuillen, but forgot to ask him if there were words to the waltz! We did find out that the name of his waltz is "Amelia" and not "Amelia's Waltz". He said that even his band calls it Amelia's Waltz; but he wrote it as "Amelia". He wrote it about 23 years ago in honor of a little girl who was born in a cabin made from the crate that shipped the fuselage of Lindberg's plane back from France. Look up 'Lindberg Crate' on Google to go to the web site. It's now a museum.
