Ed,Did you know there is a preludial section to Georgia that harldy anyone plays and most people are not aware of?

[sgs4u]

fyi - the string intro to "Georgia," by Ray C is remarkably similar to the horn intro of "Try a Little Tenderness", by Otis R.

Quote:Ed,Did you know there is a preludial section to Georgia that harldy anyone plays and most people are not aware of?I had forgotten that. It is amazing how many songs actually were written with now-forgotten prologues, such as the one to White Christmas, that no one uses. Not in style any more.
