Johnny's final Youtube upload
Here's the final upload from me, forever.
It's a song I wrote years ago, remembering the good old days in the bands.
This week I will be 76 years old. I began taking drum lessons 70 years ago. Also, as a young person, I learned accordion, piano, and guitar.
But now I find that I don't have the energy nor enthusiasm to practice my instrumental skills. So, rather than produce uploads with compromises of quality, I have decided it is time to stop recording.
Thanks to all the fans who took time to listen to my songs (since 2008), and thanks for the enthusiastic comments. I don't want to miss anyone, so I won't make a list of names.
Special thanks to my sisters Mary Lynn and Rose Ann for being such wonderful fans.
Also thanks to my wife, Terri, for the Taylor acoustic guitar for my 60th birthday in 2006. It gave me the impetus to play in public again, and to record on TH-cam.
So: from Johnny Singer, Johnny Guitar, Johnny Piano, and Johnny Drummer, best of wishes to all of you. You are all special to the Johnny's.
Thanks for watching!
