Thanks, guys. As you can see, I think Buddy is/was a major talent. Not to even mention the quality of human being he was. He was one of those people who actually listened, who was present. I still don't like to sing in large groups but he was the first one to ever get me to sing on a stage. And when my 12+ year of living/hosting a weekly music jam tenure at a house museum was over, he wrote a song for me with the theme of 'Where will we go when the music's gone?'
"There's a big white house on a hill
Where a Judge lived long ago
He's long since dead but his ghost lives on
And every Friday evening we sang some old time tunes
We made sweet music, filled the empty rooms"
Waddon Pete, I will answer your pm very soon. Thanks.
