Sayonara Japanese Goodbye ( 1957 )​

 

[Beemer]

One of the most underrated slow songs ever.

The entire album is great IMO. Basically the story of Elton John & Bernie Taupin.

This one is a real tear jerker, it's something we have all been through:

"Gotta find me a way to get me back to yesterday
How can I ever hope to forget you"?

Version 1 - A great album from a great band (IMO) :

Version 2 - a great band (see why BB King said Peter Green was the only guitarist that made him sweat):

This is probably the most beautiful song on this subject matter that’s ever been written.

For what it’s worth, Romanza is an excellent album. There isn’t a bad song on it.

My Romanza CD should be arriving on Tuesday. Thanks for your recommendation.

This my favorite performance of a Robert Johnson song. The dobro and harp work are both really good.

This is the last song Richard Farina wrote. Mimi recorded it after he’d died. Some folks say he wrote this farewell song because he knew he was going to die.

My Romanza CD should be arriving on Tuesday. Thanks for your recommendation.

Let me know how you like it! It is one of my favorites.

This one is a real tear jerker, it's something we have all been through:

Written and performed by Tom Rush, who played during UConn freshman initiation week in 1968. Song was on his 1970 album. No idea if it performed for us.
