I am happy to have a few videos I recorded of his performances, including "Cara Mia."

(2,654 posts)12. Kenny coming back after his three-year absence is great news!
It was from about 2008 through 2011 that Kenny performed at the annual festival which I mentioned. A few years back at one of the festivals, there was an announcement that he was taking time off due to health concerns. It is great to hear that he is performing again!

Besides the great music ,he is so funny.
He talks about seeing some old guy on TV singing Cara Mia and he was going to sue him,until his wife told him, "that's you"
