OLD 55 Posted July 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2006 Thanks very much edna. They are great! The one I have on a videotape is of him singing to a rapturous black audience (maybe at the Apollo Theater) in a "chant/response" style. I wish I could put that on here.

c_s_1987 Posted July 11, 2006 Report Share Posted July 11, 2006 1. Shine On You Crazy Diamond - Pink Floyd 2. Free Bird - Lynyrd Skynyrd Thanks shadows. We do have a nice bunch of people here whom I'm sure will make you feel at home. Especially c s 1987 whose two nominations you voted as your #1 and #2 picks. Thanks our shadows taller than our souls for helping the success of my songs. That is now my third number 2, but I am yet to have a number 1. Don't worry, it's not like I'm trying to get a number 1, although that would be nice . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
