I've always thought that "Ain't Misbehavin'" would make for a cool tune on the Leavitt lap steel.

Seems like nice choices, Mike. I'm not familiar with "Theme from "Mr. Lucky."
Off the top of my head some other standards that might work well on Leavitt are (in no particular order) ........
Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars
Meditation
Once I loved
Dindi
Day of the Carnival
Under Paris Skies
Haunted Heart
The Man I Love
More
A Foggy Day
You are too Beautiful
Deep Night
Estralita
Blue Monk
On Green Dolphin Street
Nancy
Lil Darlin
Old Devil Moon
There's a Small Hotel |

That's a good bunch. I was looking for a nice bossa. Thanks.
I wouldn't touch Estralita, Jerry did that as good as it's ever going to sound. |
