"Blue Sky"

This is part of the roof of Waddesdon Manor in Buckinghamshire. For 'Sight and Sound', "Blue Sky" by Joan Baez came to mind :-) "Blue Sky" was written by Richard (Dickey) Betts of The Allman Brothers. I was saddened to read that just recently that Dickey suffered a freak accident that caused bleeding on his brain. The good news is that following brain surgery Dickey is making a recovery and it is hoped he will be well enough to celebrate his 75th birthday on December 12th. I wish him well and "A Very Happy 75th Birthday". "Blue Sky" features on Joan's 1975 album "Diamonds & Rust". I mustn't leave out the original version by The Allman Brothers from their 1972 album "Eat A Peach". Tragically, Duane Allman died in a motorcycle crash before the album was released. ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ Listen here ~ Blue Sky ~ Joan Baez ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ Listen here ~ Blue Sky ~ The Allman Brothers Band
