Don't fence me in - recreated note for note
This is a version of Don't fence me in by The Puppini Sisters (of Bing at Christmas fame) and singer Duncan Galloway. To me it looks like an almost note-for-note re-creation. Quite special, when you consider the original version by Bing was released in 1944. Trivia, but (I think) nice trivia.

Note for note, beat for beat!
Interesting, but such a close imitation loses creative individuality.
I think I'll stick with the original!

Re: Don't fence me in - recreated note for note
I agree with you Richard, in what you write about the loss of creative individuality. But other than that, I feel it is a sincere tribute. An interesting group, these Puppini Sisters.
