The other night, I quickly scanned my husband's Spotify Easy Listening / Exotica playlist folder to find some appropriate dinner music and landed on Hugo Montenegro'sCrazy Arms. As we ate, with the mellow strings of the Hugo Montenegro orchestra in the background, I kept commenting, "Oh, hey, we sang this song in my country harmony singing class." Crazy Arms. Making Believe. More and More. I could sing the high tenor on like half the songs on this album. Which led me to wonder, was my country harmony teacher a Hugo Montenegro fan? Or was Hugo Montenegro a fan of country harmony?

Should have worn my white gloves today.
