The restaurant where I play wants to hear it very badly, and I don't even know the piece! If you could maybe help me with the composers name, it would be really great. All my searches are dead-ends at the moment, coz a lot is classified by composer. Please help me! Hi from South Africa lallie

According to Google, there is a piece called Sleepy Shores which was the theme tune from the BBC TV series Owen M.D., composed by Johnny Pearson. Could this be the one? - Michael B.

The Johnny Pearson orchestra as I recall played it really sweetly and my mom loved it. But it is SO-O-O ancient now being round the seventies. I'm glad people still want to hear it again. No-one can forget a good piece of music even after all that time. It don't mean a ting if it don't have dat swing
