Sunday Session


New rules - there are no rules!
On Sundays I play music on my blog.
Old or new or in between.
Related or not.
But always songs I love!
Here are my picks for this week.
You can play along by linking up below.
Can't wait to hear your picks.

Happy Sunday!

On Friday night my husband took me out for dinner and an overnight stay for my birthday at the resort near his parents place...child free! It is really handy having a resort close to your in-laws!
Last time we dined there they didn't have live music and I was wishing they did.
So I was very pleasantly surprised to walk in and see a geee-tar man setting up and warming up.

As we sat sipping cocktails...oh yes we did...we were guessing what kind of music he might play and what he would sound like.

To give you some idea, he looked daggy....really daggy!
He was about our age, but forgot that he wasn't living in the 80s anymore.

Anyhow, I thought he would definitely play some Van Morrison stuff and probably a bit of Eric Clapton.
I said he might sound a bit like Christopher Cross. Or even John Denver, given that he looked quite a bit like him! I've never been a John Denver fan so I didn't have very high expectations.

And guess what?
He sounded like a mix between Christopher Cross and John Denver...and sang Layla!
Full marks for me!

So, with all of that rambling in mind, this week's Sunday Session is inspired by Geeeee-tar Man.
Who we did end up enjoying, it was very nice dinner music.

Sunday Session

I'm going to try something new today...with a Linky!!

Hope it works and hope you like it.

I remember the days (BC..before children) when we occasionally headed off to a local or inner city pub for the Sunday Afternoon Session.  I loved it when they had a guitarist or duo, singing cruisy chill out music.

So, on Sundays I'm going to pop two favourite songs onto my blog.
An oldie but a goldie.
And a newbie, fresh off the charts.

Here are my picks for this week.

If you want to, you can play along by linking up below.
Can't wait to hear your picks.

Happy Sunday afternoon!
