john smies Senior Member Registered: 05/05/00 Posts: 1384 Loc: koudekerke, Holland.	Though somewhat hesitant in light of all the posting by my fellow countrymen here ( Rico, Tostie, Robbedoes) and their superior craftsmansdhip I do want to share these two recordings with you. Bearing in mind that I am not a piano player and that the Korg PA800 is not a piano (...far from it...) this is the best I could do, but I am sure the song itself will be inspirational for you professional entertainers out there regards, John English version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bphjIX0H5hU&feature=c4-overview&list=UUbaSW7yCrf0Rfpks9L0WvwQ Dutch version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GjNcssGGRQk&list=UUbaSW7yCrf0Rfpks9L0WvwQ&feature=c4-overview

DonM Senior Member Registered: 06/25/99 Posts: 16735 Loc: Benton, LA, USA	Very nice John! On a trivia note, I also listened to Midnight Special. In downtown Shreveport, near where I live, there is a statue of the local man who wrote it, Hudie Ledbetter. He is better known as Leadbelly. He was pretty much a rascal, and spent his share of time in jail, but wrote some great songs such as this one and Goodnight Irene. Thanks for sharing your talent! _________________________ DonM

john smies Senior Member Registered: 05/05/00 Posts: 1384 Loc: koudekerke, Holland.	Thank you guys for your comments. Believe me it is a pleasure to perform a song like this, I would imagine in ANY language... And as you say Ian the Korg piano is not all that bad really. regards, John P.S. Don, I basically fell in love with the Midnight Special thru Creedence and John Fogerty, great singer, great gitarist!
