DAN'S REPETOIR AND DEMO CD

 

Play the radio to hear my CD

The following is a "snap-shot" of some tunes that I perform. My book of songs is founded upon the many tunes that were daily fare in my parent's home and requests that I have received through my 40+ years of performance at parties of all kinds. They are mostly hits of the 20th Century. So that I can stay fresh, I am continually working on new material for my customers. Please let me know if there is any preferrence in speciality area such as time period or style so that I may lean in that direction. I hope that you will enjoy the tunes that I have chosen.

My AIN'T MISBEHAVIN' CD was recorded not to be perfect. Rather, to spotlight my "on stage" sound. I hope you'll enjoy my arrangements of some of the best songs written. Oh, yeah, a couple of them are my compositions. Click on the radio play button and scroll through my CD.

If you want to enjoy my songs one by one, right-click on the following links and select "Save Target As" - or simply click the link and the song will play in your default music player.

I'd like to thank my recording engineer, Gusty Christiansen, who I haven't spoken with for some time. If someone knows how to get in contact with Gusty, drop me an email.

Enjoy:
