I get video unavailable for the last song, "A Swingin' Safari." I found another link and was going to post it, but my post preview button says it's also unavailable.

Mack, you must click "Watch on YouTube" in the preview.
More and more videos are being only watchable on YouTube.
(I have found out that I have to watch all the videos, posted here, on YouTube starting today.)

Oh, sorry - I didn't know that. Thanks for telling me. Nothing quite as good as life staying simple, but we know that's never gonna happen.

I don't pay for a YouTube Premium membership which would permit me ad free viewing. So this is a further way to inconvenience me in an effort to get me to sign up. Also, YouTube must lose a certain percentage of ad revenue by me watching embedded videos that do not show ads.

Update: I couldn't watch videos here because I was signed out of YouTube. Once I'm signed in things work as before. Why I was signed out is a complete mystery.

I sometimes ''watch on you tube'' if the video isn't available to view...but there are some that you can't even see on YT because the uploader hasn't made it available outside of their country
