These tunes are all good, but "Fly Me to the Moon" is my favorite! That young lady has a great voice and the band backing her is superb! I've always liked that song, and this might have just become my favorite rendition of it! 🙂

I'd love to know more about that beautiful instrument David Lindley is playing in that piece with Jackson Browne! It is physically pretty and has a wonderful sound, too! A variant of a lute, perhaps? 🤔

Hi Kitty... Dude here. May i answer your question about the instrument. It looks like an Oud. Awesome sound indeed.

ah, an oud! The ones I've seen were a bit fatter, and definitely not so ornate as that one! It's beautiful! Thanks for responding! 😊

know you say that... i have a doubt. 😬🙃
so i rewatched a bit closer and i guess you are right... it's quite possibly a Lavta and definitely related to the Lute and the Oud.
