Thanks folks. I take great care with getting my stuff in synch, so I can tell if it's not been processed properly by YouTube - which, I must admit, only happens now and then. It may be slight, but I spot it straightaway!

Some verses demand to be played - others are less than memorable. I pick and choose. One of the things I like about Leon Redbone is the fact that he nearly always sings the complete tune - verse and chorus - on his albums. There's a lovely verse to that old waltz, "Are You Lonesome Tonight?" - and, as far as I know, he's the only person to sing it.

As for Bubbles reciprocating... 'twould be telling...
