One of the many reasons I adore this, is because I was around these
two's ages way back in the 60's and it shows just how mostly naive
a lot of us were, even though we were on the precipice of entering
a new generation of much freedom and great social change,
compared to how far we have come along now,
I hope this brings back some good memories for you too!
The definitive "Somwhere Over the Rainbow"
Hiya PartTimeBrewer, and thanks for calling by here,
you know, I have heard this version you kindly posted
but I had never seen the video of it until just now,
and I must say that I do prefer the more up-beat
style of this one, for the Judy Garland style tended
to leave me a little on the wistful side.
Thanks for that.
This one is going back a loooong way,
I remember the first time I heard this
was when I was a Flower Girl at my Auntie's Wedding Reception
and being a five year old being whisked around the dance floor
by all the grown-ups in a progressive dance...very happy memories.
You never know, it is possible that a memory may return when you least expect it Kooner,
and I think why I remember this particular one is because the saxophone was the
most dominant instrument, I've not a clue whether it was `alto' or anything else,
but that was when I first became aware of such a wonderful sound,
and of course have loved it ever since.
Come to think, even though it's a bit late in the day,
I could go learn to play the sax, coz folk are always
letting me know what a great `windbag' I am - ha!
I caught one of my foreign students looking at that during class, I was too apprehensive to ask him if he thought it was representative of all Americans.
Hullo funes, I haven't spoken to you for ages,I hope all is well in your world.
This guy that's trying to quack like a duck with a fish down it's throat
killed the whole effect for me by leaving his socks on ! ha!
If I book him for my next block party, I'll invite you to give him some pointers.
