but I'm going to blow my own whistle, for just a moment.
With the exception of "Raisin' the Dickens" I have and can play each of the songs that I've listed here. |

Thank you Ray, I haven't heard of half of those.
It'll be fun to check them out.
There is a youtube video of Garland Nash playing a sweet version of Coconut Grove.
Thanks again fellas.

Jim......."Westphalia Waltz" along with "The Waltz You Saved for me" are from Bud Issac's early day RCA Victor records. Numerous other tunes I listed are his recordings, as well.
Steve:........I've never heard the song your referenced. Leon did a great song that went 'pop' back in the '50's......called PanHandle Waltz. It's a great A tuning song.
Thanks for participating in this thread. |

Did anyone list "Sawed Off Shotgun". Can't remember first name but last nae is "Caple". He just recently passed on ! This is one of my favorite instrumentals. I believe "Georgia Steel Guitar" was written and first recorded by Boots Harris with the Curly Williams Band.
name was ROCKY CAPLE _________________ Sacramento Western Swing Society Hall of Fame, 1992
