A classic duo

I haven't posted a Musical Monday in a while, but this one I couldn't resist. For some reason, Roger Whittaker was on my mind this weekend so I headed to You Tube to search him out, and found this gem.

Roger Whittaker sings "The Last Farewell" with Chet Atkins backing him up on guitar!

They just don't make 'em like they used to.

Yeah, I know, I have bizarre and varied musical tastes.

I actually have Roger Whittaker's CD of his "best hits." He's one of my alltime favorites and The Last Farewell is one of my favorite songs. I put him in the same category as Richard Harris and his song MacArthur Park, among others...

Thanks for the clip, Derek. I grew up with Roger Whittaker's "The Last Farewell" album. My parents had it on (Ker-CHUNK) 8-Track and we played it often. When I left for college, I picked up the record then eventually the CD and now it's copied to my iPod. It's one album that I will always keep in my music library.
