Donny, back in the day I was the designated chord finder for the tunes we did. I had an old $5 upright that tuned to itself pretty good but was flat. I had to play with my mouth piece hanging off the cork. Me having to figure the chords was a blessing.

We couldn't afford to buy the sheet music. When I bought a black market "fake" book at that time, I really took off and fell in love with the standards. Now I can accompany myself and entertain folks and make them happy. No shame in that friend.

I'm a sax player. And I get compliments on my vocals. I think you do a great job. Your CD's really swing. You're one of the best. Buddy.
