Thank my parents for my eclectic taste in music. My father would always sing me songs that always made me feel good. So? He'd always go Old School R&B for that. When I play these songs, it isn't just to play it for the Canteen or for the troops..it brings me closer to my dad. He's far away from me right now and it makes me feel better knowing someone else will enjoy it. Okay, I'll stop being sappy. I'm going to get more emotional than needed! Good grief!

Oh, MoJo - don't apologize for being emotional when you're talking about how much you miss your dad! I miss mine, too. My dad was a professional guitar player throughout his life, and he loved a jazz guitar player named Django Reinhardt. Whenever I hear Django (you frequently hear it in old Woody Allen movies, for instance), I feel like he's right here with me. I know just what you mean.
Thanks so much for the Stevie - I can't get enough of that stuff.
NHH,
Duchess
