Dear Steve,
I have several OKOM renditions of "Nature Boy."
The problem was that awful electric guitar - I didn't last 3 minutes,
but rather went to your other links.

>I included the link because of the beauty of Jonathan's solo

The days one had to suffer a lot of mire to get to a good solo are
over - if I listen to my records full time (8 hours a day), I might be
able to ear everything over two years.
Cheers
