Ah, but Ray.....there are just so many, many ways to play all those tunes.
Just listen to the YouTube John Allred video that Bob Ringwall just posted
on DJML (Sweet Georgia Brown).  There's certainly nothing boring about that.
You think it's all been done, then you hear someone like John!  

'tain't the tune, it's the way in how you play it.......
