In last week’s Temptation Eyes BoTB showdown, I put three cover artist on center stage for you to consider and to vote on. No counting mishaps or lost ballots to report. The majority’s voice spoke giving victory to THE WILLOUGHBY BROTHERS!
A gentle remind of how you voted in this round.
The Willoughby Brothers – Tom, Barbie, Sandee, Brian, Mimi, Eugenie, & Stephen
Bucket Band – Birgit, Robin, Ellen, & Nicole
The Rebels – Lee & Kinga
Now for another performance by The Willoughby Brothers with the cover, Ebony Eyes.
I think these fellas are really good. It would be awesome to see them take their act on the road if they haven’t already. They are an excellent cover band. You can follow these guys by subscribing to Russ Willoughby’s YT channel.
Let me point out, so you won’t be confused like I was temporarily, while snooping around YouTube looking for a song to share, I discovered another Willoughby Brothers band from Ireland. Even in the wee hours, I soon realized this band wasn’t the same one I use in the BoTB. but gee, what are the odds of this? Pretty wild, huh?
Congratulations to Russ, Jeffrey, and Geoff Willoughby!! 👏
You’ll find more battle results at Mike’s Ramblings,The Sound of One Hand Typing (John), & Tossing It Out (Lee).
I appreciate everyone who took part in the battle and I hope you’ll mark your calendar to join me in my upcoming showdown on May 1st!
Tomorrow is DH’s off Friday. I won’t be active in Blogosphere over the weekend but I have my Looney Tunes A-Z Art Sketch posts scheduled and I hope you’ll stop by for a look. Have a tunetastic day, my friends! X💋X💋, Cathy

I thought I voted on this one. I guess it didn’t go through. I will get you r next battle for sure!
This guy is very, Very good! (Yes, “guy”. Where are his so-called “Brothers”?)
The Willoughby Brothers are, apparently, one guy named “Willoughby” (sometimes with his hat on, and sometimes with his hat off). Unless all three bros are triplets, then it’s just one guy. And I thought that same thing during the original ‘Temptation Eyes’ Battle – one guy playing multiple instruments!!!
Yeah, the Willoughby Brothers are brothers just like covid-19 is a very real and very dangerous virus.
Drink more coffee, Peoples! DRINK MORE COFFEE!! (And get that MASK off your face while you’re drinking it!!!)
Sheesh!

I really enjoy the voting. I am off for an MRI so I will check back later. Have a great weekend,
That was a good one. Funny, I hadn’t heard that song in forever but heard it twice on the radio today.
Hi, Cathy!
I like your graphic showing the original Grass Roots Dunhill 45 rpm record label. Thanks for reporting the results of your latest BOTB. I am pleasantly surprised to learn that the guys I voted for,The Willoughbys, held their lead throughout the voting period and that it didn’t evaporate in the final hours. In fact they wound up winning the battle by a comfortable margin. I really like their cover of “Ebony Eyes,” At first I thought it was going to be the John Loudermilk song made famous by the Everly Brothers, but it turned out to be the song penned and recorded by Bob Welch, a former member of Fleetwood Mac. Juice Newton sang backup on Welsh’s 1978 hit recording.
See you tamale, dear friend Cathy!
These guys are really good. Really good. They could make a lot of money if they took this on a tour.
Have a fabulous day, Cathy. Love and hugs. ♥
They are good. Enjoy your weekend!
