Hi Folks.
As I was working on this RAYS CHAT,
I heard that
Willie Nelson Had Died, aged 89 on 6th November.
Great Performer Who went on working
even though He had been ill for Many Years:
He will be sadly missed.
Put In:
“What”ll Do” – Willie Nelson 3.40
YES SAD DAY. I will certainly Miss him.
SO: Here We are Officially into Autumn.
And must expect Cooler Weather. And Yes, it is Cold Damp Days
with not much to look forward to.
Lets see if we can find a Cheerful piece of Music?
Put in:
Autumn Leaves with Breeze 4.23
There are not many Folk Songs about Autumn;
So While I search..
Lets hear the voice of Katie Meluha: I do Like Her.
Put In:
Katie Meluha Walls of the World 3.27
Thanks Katie. And I searched for Something Different:
and came up with THIS:
Put in:
If I Need You (With Don Williams) (2008 Remaster) 3.35
And then found a Guy I had not heard before,
Who played a nice Guitar: See how You like Him?
Put In
