Here are the tunes:
1) The Accordion Lady
2) Besame Mucho
3) Billie's Bounce
4) Bye Bye Blackbird
5) The Immigrants
6) Irish Medley
7) La Spagnola
8) Manha de Carnaval
9) Nature Boy
10) Oh, Lady Be Good
11) Orange Blossom Special
12) Romance
13) Se Solo
14) Somewhere over the Rainbow
15) Sweet Georgia Brown
So, I have an Irish Medley, a Bluegrass tune, 4 Bossa Nova style tunes, 4 swing tunes, 3 ballad style tunes, 1 Bebop blues tune and 1 Neapolitan tune.
I strive (as per my Atomic Habits) to practise a part of each of these tunes every day. I could be checking the melody for tone, practising voicings for the chords, playing arpeggios, trying ideas for a solo, or even using my 'piccolo bass'. NB. the piccolo bass is really a different form of pizzicato on my violin.
There you go.
Have fun and stay away from silly religions.
Sii gentile.

Yep, good for you.
I used to know a woman named Nicola Bassett. Does that help?
Ah, I see, you tried to make a pun on piccolo bass. 3/10. I'm feeling kind today.
I hope that Kind doesn't mind.
Did you make Robert go away?
No, but I thought he would.
Maybe he's discovered that the bible is full of shit and that the Catholic Church is just a front for paedophilia?
Believe in nonsense, act out nonsense.
"I'm getting sick of his coming and going." Matthew 7:92
Mmmmm.
Psalm 121:8
8 The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore. 8 The Lord will keep your going out and your coming in from this time forth and forevermore. 8 The LORD keeps watch over you as you come and go, both now and forever
I think that Robert has taken this too literally.
I've just increased my solo repertoire to 18 tunes! I've added Take the 'A' Train, Don't Get Around Much Anymore and St. Thomas.
Up to 20 now! Just added Maria, Mari and Santa Lucia. I'll be a busy boy! No time for religion!
"No time for religion" you say but you've added Maria, Mari, Santa Lucia and bloody Saint Thomas!
Oh, no!
Just sipping a red made by Willie Brown that his son gave me quite a few years back. He is running the winery in Martinborough. He knew I knew his dad when I said, "Watch, wallet and testicles." 😂
I heard that Shawn had sold up and moved last year.
The wine you’re sipping must be well past it unless it’s Apres, the fortified one.
A nice tribute to Willy though.
I was impressed that you listed your songs in alphabetical order.
I wouldn't belong to a 'silly'* religion either.
*The Holy Roman Catholic Church is the one true Church founded by Jesus the Christ, Son of the living God.
No it's not.
"Son of the living God." That's an unusual phrase.
Yes, I was surprised by that too.
