Re: The Way It Once Was
Great memories, John, and a great rendition. Though not a musician, I appreciate music, including classical music. My favorite classical piece is The Blue Danube. One of the things on my bucket list is to visit Salt Lake City to see the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and the fabulous pipe organ in the Tabernacle. FWIW, You Are My Sunshine, and The Red River Valley were my Father's (also a retired GM engineer) two most favorite songs. I remember my Father singing both songs to us in his 1947 Pontiac without radio when I was very small. You Are My Sunshine was recorded by many artists, including, I believe, Doris Day. IIRC, it was first recorded by Jimmy Davis in 1940. Below is a link to a popular version by Gene Autry. Dean
