Did John Hughey ever record "Our Last Date" as a full version instrumental?

Andy, I'm sure you've heard the Conway version.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cBbDQCcpb5M

Not sure if Hughey ever did a complete instrumental.

Our band did my initial run through in C then the singer did it in F. I always bridged with a C7 or Gm7 but they never seemed right to my ear. any thoughts?

Didn't someone (like Jeff Newman perhaps) issue / sell the Tab for instrumental version of "Last Date" ?


YEP - Woodshed Workshop #43


Great song for PSG.

John told me the story of his part on last Date, he said his vibrato was so strong they stopped the session to see if the tape was broken. What a vibrato

I had that cassette for awhile... it never really excited me although there was nothing wrong with the way he played it, maybe I got Huey creep on the brain.It was one of the woodshed Workshops...
