For this show, I began by picking songs that I was surprised to discover that I hadn't played on previous shows. No theme, in other words. But what emerged were groups of songs, often pairs, but a group of four (King Porter Stomp) and another of three (Joy Spring). It was a fun show to do, and there were several appreciative calls. Always nice to get.
