"Corrina Corrina " could re-appear as "Corona Corona"
And mustn't forget "The Object of My Infection"

Family and Friends:

I did a sampling of how musicians are dealing with the COVIT-19 epidemic and
wrote a story for the June issue of The Syncopated Times. While the pandemic
is no joking matter, it is important that we not lose our collective sense
of humor.

Los Angeles bassist Richard Simon wrote: "I'm still practicing, looking for
a few good notes, and de-composing.  Some tunes I'll be ready to play when
we're again all cleared for social mingling and public performances include:

 - "I COVID the Waterfront"

 - "Lysol You Last Night (and Got that Old Feeling)"

 - "Soap Gets in Your Eyes"

 - "The Mask You Made is Over" (accompanied on guitar by George Benson)

            - "Lung Ago and Far Away" (opening line: "Chills run up and
down my spine.")

            -A Test-Kit, A Task-It  (sung by Ella Fitzgerald)

 - and of course, the old favorite, "Vaccinatin' Rhythm"


Multi-instrumentalist Scott Robinson added a few from his New Jersey home:

Sneeze Funny That Way
I'm in the Mood For Glove

Not Close to You

Sentimental Germy (or my contribution: Germy Bounce)

I'm Building Up to an Awful Shutdown
and, Jelly Roll Morton's The Purells (for the non-jazzers: The Pearls)
