<p>Gary Morris was quite the heart throb in the 80s - complete with mullet. He did the original version of “Wind Beneath my Wings” even though most think of Bette Midler’s version. I love his voice. He has a nice natural vibrato and his diction is excellent - even when he sings country songs. (He could interpret for Dave Matthews.)</p>

<p>Speaking of Dave Matthews and Jimmy Fallon - Jimmy did a great Dave Matthews spoof of Dave doing the voice for a GPS. He does a great Dave Matthews imitation.</p>

<p>I missed the concert Friday night, and saw the iTunes version available for $7.99 (good deal for 20 songs), this afternoon. I have really enjoyed listening while internet surfing for the last hour or so- and I’m somebody who is much more of a jazz/classical listener. Proceeds go to many of the charities who have been helping. There is also a video version for $2.99

<p>As shrinkrap asked–will there be a hard CD to purchase for those of us without Ipods?</p>

<p>If I must buy an Ipod, what do you suggest I buy to play the music throughout the room?</p>

<p>I’ve long been a JT fan. He’s just an amazing talent.</p>

<p>And, wow, I’ve always loved Gary Morris so it’s neat to see his name coming up. He grew up not far from where I did. I love his schlocky country stuff, especially “Leave Me Lonely” and “Second-hand Heart.” I didn’t know until this thread that he is Matt Morris’ dad.</p>

<p>Fauve and Shrinkrap:
I don’t know about the prospects for a hard copy, but anyone (there are both Mac and Windows versions) can download the iTunes program for listening to music on your computer. [Apple</a> - iTunes - Everything you need to be entertained.](<a href=“http://www.apple.com/itunes/overview/]Apple”>iTunes - Apple) You don’t need an iPod. You can then purchase music from iTunes as well as import any CDs that you already own. It works great and is pretty intuitive. If you do decide to buy an ipod, there are a number of different speaker systems that work well and come in a variety of price ranges. We have an Altec-Lansing and a Kilpsch (spelling?), they both produce great sound. The kids have a couple different versions of the cheaper altec-lansing, which are perfectly OK for a bedroom or smaller space.</p>
