It's a Sin to Tell a Lie


Get Flash to see this player.

Description
This is just some jinque I was having fun with, backed up by Basil Fomeen and his All Girl Xylophone and Marimba Orchestra featuring Evelyn and Her Borderline Magical Violin.

The song was written in 32 AD by Billy Mayhew.

Take care now,

Michael

It's A Sin To Tell A Lie
Billy Mayhew didn't start writing songs until 43 AD.... the piano wasn't invented until 48 AD.

Great song, but you didn't fool anyone.

So, now that the truth be known, how was this performed/recorded?

Who is the vocalist?

DL'd

Thanks,

Bob

Hi Five
Thanks for correcting me--you know, originally, the piano was just one giant long white key. The one day, somebody discovered a crack!

That's me singing and I'm backed by an arrangement from London Arrangements (and how they record and create these things is rather amazing-but it's all synthesizer work!)

Take care now,

Michael

Thanks so much Alan! I grew up listening to Fats Waller records when the other kids were listening to AC/DC and I would have sworn Fats wrote this one but I stand corrected. Glad you could enjoy my fun! You take good care now--Michael

Thanks Boundless--one of these days I'm going to scat like Mel Torme, but that might take some time (about 20 years probably!)

Take good care now,

Wow
Just looking for something new and I found it, you. I am nuts about this style music and you sure do it well. This is great and so are your covers of these classics. Great stuff. Thanks!
