Thanks Derek.

Excellent version of this classic song, Jim! The fine slide work adds poignancy to this beautiful and fitting tribute. Sorry for your loss and I believe your friend is replaying this over for her friends and all are smiling.

Thanks AGP. I better check utube to see if that's the same Mary. As far as I know this Mary loved her cats, and her baskets but didn't venture into the internet world unless forced to kicking and hollering!

Thanks Wes. Good for Kathy, in doing workshops I've found there a re a lot of young folks very interested in getting their face out of electronic screens and doing things truly creative.

Thanks Richard. I feel lucky to have a circle of friends who enjoy making things by hand and keeping traditions alive.

And Dave's artwork on the box.

Ah, here we go. A couple of Mary's baskets.

"Nice Jim", always associated 7 Spanish Angels with Willy Nelson, had never heard of Mary B (til now), just checked her out on Utube and "Wow", sad to hear she's no longer with us  ;-{

I bet Mary B. is listening somewhere every time someone plays this song. Nice tribute. What a beautiful song Jim, outstanding! Straight from the heart! I might have to hit up Dave for one of these slides!

Thanks Erasmo. Not only did she keep it alive, but through classes, often free, she taught other younger folks basketry. I was gonna post a pic of her work but the site isn't co-operating at the moment.
