My kind of kid

Mr. Lonely

Such a lovely song.  Thank you Mr.Vinton 

and your experience in the US Army that inspired you!

US Army, Germany, 1960

Sentimental and Sweet

One of my favorite songs from my favorite era.  

I have to refrain from

humming along a la Glenn Gould.

Opened April 11, 1940, London, just before the Battle of Britain.

A bit sad...

This ad is from the late 1930s.  The text is quite evocative:  "The piano is intensely personal, sensitive, responsive...the instrument to which musicians have ever turned for the deepest and most rewarding evocations of the spirit."
The ad also mentions four famous pianists:  Hoffmann, Horowitz, Paderewski, Rachmaninoff.  I wonder how many have even heard of them today.

Kids say the darndest things...

What is it about wearing his shirt that makes a guy go crazy?  Well, whatever makes you happy.  The guy mowing the lawn looks pretty happy, too.

Time flies
