      I was at a summer camp in '62 when they made a kid who forgot to say "please" before "pass the salt" and his penalty was to sing Moon River A Cappella, standing on his chair, to the entire dining hall. He did well. I've always loved the music from those days. I'm So happy I found you Reina del Cid, and so grateful for your music.

    I am 61 years old and have been playing guitar for 51 years. I have become such a huge fan of you guys because you play the songs from my generation with such precision and soul. I also love to see your free spirit as that is what playing music did and still does to my heart and spirit. I saw Andy Williams perform "Moon River" at the Hollywood Bowl back in the 1980's and I have to say that your rendition equally touches my soul...Great job!

He crossed the bridge and is in puppy heaven now. I was so sad today, but your incredible Moon River made me smile. Thank you my huckleberry friends.

      Although Moon River is regarded as Andy Williams signature song it was never released as a single. but the album
