Deep in the heart of Texas/Oh! Susanna instrumental cover by Dave Monk

"Deep in the Heart of Texas" is an American popular song elaborating on the merits of the U.S. state of Texas.
The 1941 song features lyrics by June Hershey and music by Don Swander. The song was recorded by Perry Como with Ted Weems and His Orchestra on December 9 of that year for Decca Records in Los Angeles, California. It was a single release (4138 A) on the flip side of the song "Ollie Ollie Out's In Free." "Deep in the Heart of Texas" spent five weeks at the top of Your Hit Parade in 1942. The song spent twelve weeks in total on the 1942 Hit Parade.
"Oh! Susanna" is a minstrel song by Stephen Foster (1826-1864), first published in 1848. It is among the most popular American songs ever written. Members of the Western Writers of America chose it as one of the Top 100 Western songs of all time.
Here is my instrumental version of this short medley. I hope you like this bit of fun. Dave
p.s. Again excuse the legs. It was very hot when I recorded this...where has the heat gone now!

[@Blackfive1945]

Yes excellent Dave . Very jolly and touch of Duane Eddy here .I`m sure Duane did Deep In The Heart Of Texas when he went over to RCA Records in 1962 . Enjoyed that ...but OMG the legs .Mind you mine have not seen the sun since 1958 ! They`re darker than yours though ! I thought you lot in the beautiful south got all the sun ! We don`t wear shorts here as it`s to bloody cauld ! lol Great upload , Roger

[@OldGuitarMonkey]

Hi Roger, That day was a corker. I had to wear shorts it was far too hot. You can probably make out the fan blowing reflected in the TV! Normally I wouldn't show my legs in public! I don't want to get the girls too excited! lol All the best Dave
