    Here is the original, by the Chantays, in 1962. You may recall that we discussed this song with your mother when it first came out. She put a damper on my enthusiasm with remarks about its simplicity and lack of subtlety.

    Doug Beaumier, who is playing the above, has some other tasty slide and pedal steel videos on you tube.
    My mom, who knew how to sing, would dismiss pop singers who were “breathy.”
