Beautiful. Unlike the others that have posted, I have never heard this song before, but I can't say that any longer:)


Thank you for sharing!

Well done Dean, really beautiful playing, loved it!

I remember seeing Acker Bilk popping up on tv with Cleo Lane maybe? or did I make that up? when I was really young, and I've heard him play that tune quite a few times.
It may even have been his signature tune?

Anyway good job! I always enjoy your effortless playing.

Thanks for the positive feedback everyone; btw I learned this off YouTube, I think there could be a lot more drawn out of the tune by a master arranger, hence the hint that Neil might be the man ;)

Excellent Dean! Played very cleanly. Yep, I am of that era and remember it well.
