Don Ingle, in a very nice way, has corrected me: > Bill: I believe you have
your composer/lyricist [reversed].<

Dear Friends,
Never trust the great Google!

As we all know, it is only as good as the information put into it.
I just found out, by accepting (without checking) the authorship of "'Tain't
No Sin".
And finished up with egg on my face and a deserved slap on the wrist from Mr
Ingle.
In fact, I was so intent on the words, I didn't read the credits.
I certainly knew it was a Donaldson song, with words by Edgar Leslie.
Should do, as I have devoted several radio programs to the great Walter D.
I can only echo my mate Don's admiration for a great music man and his "jazz
age tunes, [and] ballads".
Kind regards,
Bill.
