Ed, have you ever tried to play any Steve Winwood music on the piano? Good stuff. A nice break from classical IMHO.

(BTW, you forgot me... ) I've been playing Can't Find My Way Home (1969). A friend gave me the sheet music and now I'm looking for more. I was hoping you would have some suggestions. I love it. How did I forget you? Do you mean the question? Best PM me. I've been so tired and overwhelmed the past couple of days. The Coffee Room is nice and lighthearted. (I don't really need to think too much). Plus I'm bummed I'm going to miss the party. I missed the last one remember?

What a great song! Certainly on my all time favorite list along with another I neglected to mention: Little Wing. Someone, I think Allison Kraus, has a great cover of Can't Find My Way Home. jf

jf What do you mean? I *love* Allison Kraus. Does she do a rendition of it? She's super talented.

We're not far (about 10 minutes) from Punta Gorda. You can come over and try out the Sohmer. It's no match for your BB though. edit: just found out there will be no Tomcats. bummer

ahhh, blind faith. ![[Linked Image]](http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B000001FDI.01._SCMZZZZZZZ_.jpg) very controversial album cover in its time, and when i think of it, im not sure if it would pass censorship in today's child abuse awareness mood. nice thing about this forum, is that many of us think alike in some things and not in others.

[/b] Once during a bluegrass jam our crazy banjo player suddenly starting ripping into that tune. A full blown jam circle developed around it. I later tabbed it out for Dobro and sometimes use it as a medley filler on open stages.
