ReplyDeleteHi Tom,
DeleteFYI, this clip came from my Web site, now closed down in which I posted all the bands that played at Fitzgerald's for a few years. You may have seen it. I think I have about 7 dates with the Parton band. I pretty much quit going there so I didn't have any new material so I shut it down. Now I just fool around with my blog/FB Group which I suspect is where you found this clip
Take care
