Oh - and here's a little postscript about showing people new stuff that they hadn't heard before. Comments on YouTube videos:

Wonderful Tune. Where did you dig all these fabolous songs from? Thank you for the tab again.

I learning some thing new about these great old songs, Thank u Will!

Thank you, Will. I'd never heard this one. I was surprised to find several vocal recordings of it on YouTube, including this nice one by Marion Harris: /watch?feature=endscreen&NR=1&­v=r2bUjmYqpec

This is really infectious after one or two listens. I very much enjoyed your playing. You do a terrrific version for solo guitar. Out of curiousity I searched and found the Charlie Byrd version and as you say it's "wonderful" I also liked the Sidney Bechet's rendition. Many thanks for sharing these old standards with people like me who may never have heard them before.


These comments are from just 2 recent videos. The only thing that's "Damned bloody depressing" about this thread is your attitude.
