Howard Keel Gala September 7th, 2003

Here’s the songs that Don either sang lead* or performed on:


Hotel California*
Simply an amazing performance! Don’s singing is strongly overlooked by many people, he’s considered just a guitarist and that’s a shame. Don played both his and Joe’s part on a Fender Stratocaster. Really an incredible rendition of his classic composition.

Take it Easy*
A real crowd pleaser. Everyone was singing along and having fun.

Tequila Sunrise*
Don's vocals were perfect. and he somehow made his 6 string acoustic instantly sound like a mandolin.

In the Midnight Hour (12:03 am actually:)
Lead vocals were by the legendary Steve Cropper, Don played guitar and had a solo!

Sitting on the Dock of the Bay
Also sung by Steve Cropper, Don again played  electric guitar..

You’ll Never Walk Alone (From the Musical Carousel )
Sung by Howard Keel with Don, Steve and all the other musicians from that night singing back up.
