Do Y'all Know Billy Strings?

Just for reference, this is Doc Watson's take on the same Geroge Gershwin song.

You might know of my particular feelings for Molly Tuttle. Mind you, Billy doesn't have anything on her, but she has been de-emphasizing prodigious guitar talents so her songwriting and vocals shine through. Here are Molly and Billy holding nothing back.

Billy Strings is one of those musicians whose talents and imagination surpass the norms. Sometimes his ability to play exceeds my ability to listen. In that regard, he is in very distinguished company.
 
I blame it on being older but, I often get emotional when I watch someone, such as this lady, preform..

Listen to me my friend.:blush: There's not a man or a woman alive who doesn't want a love partner who's not ashamed of getting "Misty" (pun intended). It just is not age related.

He's been singing like this for over 60 years.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DkC9bCuahC8

How interesting that you put up this guy..

Johnny Mathis preformed Misty when my first wife and I married in 59. She was absolutely gaga over him and this song.. :)

As I opened my Chromebook this morning,
the Google Doodle was of Braddah Iz

Today would have been his 61st birthday
Hauoli la hanau Brah!


I actually try to avoid this beautiful performance, because it makes me cry like a baby.:cry: Today it hit me hard, as Ron, my late husband was 61 when he died way too soon, and this was his favorite song of all time. He played it over and over when he was so very sick, and we listened to it holding hands. Sorry for the downer, but it feels good to talk about it.

I'm so thankful for Souschef, sometimes I honestly think Ron sent him for me. :wub:

Makes me cry, too!
 
K-L, you bring your tears over here any time you want,
it's okay by me!

I know that song was not about Hawaii, but when I
hear Braddah Iz singing it, I'm home! :cry: *sigh*

Both versions have memories of those I loved. I grew up with the one from Wizard of Oz, and my Mom and I both loved it so much. I asked if she would send me a sign that she had made it safely to the other side. It had been pouring rain when she died. When I drove back home after her passing, the sun was shining brightly with a rainbow over my house.
It was my husband Ron's birthday, November 17th, 1983 I always think of them both on that date, even all these years later.

Ooh, I've got chicken-skin.
There's so many signs, every day, that our loved one are watching over us, isn't there K?
I think that those of us left behind just need to to look, they're here, all around us.
Ooh, chicken-skin again ...
