BLUE EYES CRYING IN THE RAIN

Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain  has been a favorite song of mine all through the years.   So when I was looking for songs to record, I decided this was to be one. I did the melody then went back and did the harmony.   I did get good airplay throughout the country so that was nice.   But at the same time I had my record out, an artist in Florida had his out.   He had a very nice rendition of Blue Eyes but it was frustrating the same song was out at the same time..I would  think he was maybe as frustrated as I was.. Then a year later, Willie Nelson had his Blue Eyes out on record.
I recorded  Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain at Wiley Recording Studio in Tacoma, WA with Bill Wiley at the board//console.  Speedy Price was on the steel guitar again.... I had had  the arrangement in my head for a long time so it was fun to hear it take shape.       Blue Eyes is still one of my favorite songs and I guess it  will always be..
