About? I think the music I record here describes "about". Living somewhere quiet in England near to lakes, hills, cycleways. We are a fit and healthy retired couple with a lifetime of experience in entertainment, both Musical and Magical. Don't be mistaken about pieces like "Death"! It's just my weird sense of humour.

Story behind the song
"Guilty" is a popular song published in 1931. The music was written by Richard A. Whiting and Harry Akst. The lyrics were written by Gus Kahn. Popular recordings in 1931 were by Ruth Etting, Wayne King and by Russ Columbo. CHARLIE KUNZ was an American born pianist who visited Britain and stayed. He became in the 1930s the highest paid pianist ever at 1000 GBP a week! put that in today's money. His big break came at the Holborn Empire in London. He was a prolific recording artiste with an unmistakable style of accentuations which I have tried to portray here.
