Thanks so much, Pete. I think what happened is that I had watched some Bud Light commercials and had copied one to send to a friend...forgetting in the meantime that I was doing the SGF post first. Thanks again!

Hi Bent, That is really some nice playing of a song I wouldn't have thought of playing as an instrumental. I don't usually comment on these videos, but I was impressed enough with the simplicity of this arrangement, and how smooth everything sounded, I just had to this time. Good job. Larry

Another bump for Kjell. Now that the link is corrected I hope many more of you give him a listen.
I don't know about y'all - as for me, there is something so crystal clear and clean about this particular Franklin. You can hear that in other youtubes that Kjell has as well. Or maybe it's because Hal's spirit lives in it?

Anyway, I think Kjell does the song justice in every way.
