Notes
Uncle Larry explores the dark corners some sweet old acoustics on a nice relaxing Sunday morning....grab a nice coffee and enjoy the ride.

friends....why do we all have all these different instruments?

is it an obsession? maybe

is it because we never know what song we are gonna be playing next? probably

if you are indeed enjoying this fine Sunday morning sermon, the collection plate is being passed through the aisles
