The Cassidy family record collection also included LPs by Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald and Aretha Franklin. Many people have remarked at Eva's wide-ranging selection of material, but I know exactly which artists and which Lfs piqued her interest. From this genre of music, we include: What a Wonderful World, Autumn Leaves and At Last. Eva had an attraction to several tunes written by Christine McVie. Songbird, the tune, is included in this book and the arrangement is absolutely true to Eva's recording of it. I personally like the tenderness and message of Steve Digman's Anniversary Song. Steve hired Eva to do a demonstration recording of his original material, and we were most delighted, after Eva's passing, when we heard that this tune would be made available for Eva's CD entitled "Time After Time." I have always felt that the simplicity of guitar and voice is one of God's many gifts. Whether one plays guitar at home, alone, for the sheer joy of making music -- or whether you join with others around a campfire or at family gatherings, it's food for the soul. I hope that this book of Eva's special material will become dog-eared over the years, as you too enjoy the wondrous experience of "making music."
