harmonica - me
vocal - me

Lyrics: (I rewrote a couple lines)
Grab your coat, and get your hat
Leave your worries on the mat
Just direct your feet
To the sunny side of the street
Don't you feel a little pep?
And that happy tune's your step
Life can be so sweet
On the sunny side of the street

[Bridge]
I used to walk in the shade
With those blues on parade
But I'm not afraid
This rover crossed over

[Verse 2]
If I never have a cent
I'll be rich as any gent
Gold dust at my feet
On the sunny side of the street

Rob,

Love this! A great rendition. The tracks selections and your harmonica are excellent. Really nice mix on this as well.

Your vocal is also a standout. I hear subtle touches of Mac Rebennack. Very nice!

Awesome!

Hi Rob!
I am aware of this song but only the final (title) line of each verse, so now I can say I’ve heard the whole thing. Your harp solo sounded as smooth as silk, and loved your scatting as well. The scatting pulls the listener back to wanting to hear words again, so it’s a kind of tension and release move.
Loved it!

Until now!! Until now my favorite version of this beautiful, bouncing tune was with Dizzy Gillespie singing. That is until now. Bob. Man, that harp is very special in this one, and I really dig the scat singing. What a woderful rendition. Swinging sensation.


Enjoy whatever happens!
