today marks my grandfather's 116th birthday...

there have been many times in my life when I wished I could speak with him...now, there is nothing left to speak for him but his music...

here's a performance of my favorite song of his that i found...Sue Keller is the performer...


despite the fact that the tempo is a bit slower than it should be, i like her rendition because she plays it with feeling...and maintains a strong left hand even while she's vamping with her right...
