A band is playing at the lavish wedding reception for a mob member's daughter.

A tough looking guy walks up to the band leader and says, "My cousin Angelo wants that you should play 'Come Rain or Come Shine'....................... and if I was you, I'd play both."

A few years back I was playing a job in Louisville on a house B-3. The local B-3 master, who also played this place frequently
came up, introduced himself and said ,"hey, man, play "somethin". I put on my best Jimmy Smith face (no small feat for a short, pudgy white guy), and played "Chicken Shack".
I felt pretty good about it. He came back and asked again "man, play "somethin".
I sweated a bit and played another traditional Jimmy Smith blues.
He came back again, and this time I asked him "exactly, what do you want me to play?"
Turns out he wanted me to play the Beatles tune....you guessed it..."Something!

DonM plays both kinds of music, country and western! I might add that he plays them both well.
