"Don't Get Around Much Anymore" (Bob Russel & Duke Ellington) 5.5 MB solo acoustic guitar mp3 (performed by Martin Taylor) Bonus track here: Mr. Taylor plays "Cheek to Cheek" and so why not enjoy Joe Pass' version of the same song? God bless America and the flat five.

No comments required, just dig the tunes.

If you listen carefully you can hear them breathe.

man, I played DGAMA and already at the first few bars my guitar playing SO said "this is nice" and began air-acoustic-guitaring. I agree. Nice.

So, thanks Cryptical Envelopment. I'm usually not much for guitars alone, often hate it. This (thread) is my answer to that thread. Neat. Gonna check this guy out now.

Oh man, that reminds me of an SCTV episode with a game show, and I think it's Dave Thomas who's playing a deaf old man, and when the host asks him for the umpteenth time what the song is, the old guy just says "What? Speak up?" And then the host gets fed up and shouts "DO YOU KNOW THE ANSWER," and the old man rasps, "Yes I do and you don't have to shout! It's "Don't Get Around Much Anymore!"

And then there's another contestant who always buzzes in before the question is asked with answers like "Computers?" or "A small, vise-like object?"

Oh man, that's so funny.

Now back to your regularly scheduled programming.
