Bill Merkel Posted October 8, 2021 Report Share Posted October 8, 2021 He really did drop an album, but it's not cheap either. Must have. https://www.ebay.com/itm/193377053679 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Noon Posted October 8, 2021 Report Share Posted October 8, 2021 This seems to be attributed to Fred Blassey, but it is something I recorded in the mid-1970's. Zip royalties, other than the thrill of meeting Dr. D. and Fred. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELCNrfCEhO0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilipKT Posted October 8, 2021 Report Share Posted October 8, 2021 I had a colleague who was a conductor, whose name is David Burgess, and when I first heard about David Burgess the violin maker, I wondered if the David that I knew had changed careers. I’ve never seen a picture of our David, so for all I know it is the same guy… And you still owe me 20 bucks you jerk! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The title of the song was "I'm Not As Good As I One Was, (But I'm As Good, Once, As I Ever Was) Since the video doesn't seem to have embedded, here's the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldQrapQ4d0Y Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
