Gord, I just wanted to echo Teddy's sentiments on your Teagarden link. Although I had heard of him, I had never actually heard him play, believe it or not! Now I understand why he is so popular. Would you happen to know what year that rendition of "Dark Eyes" was made? I would guess sometime in the middle forties or thereabouts. But anyway, thanx again.
