This is straight from my childhood - my sisters & I grew up listening to these songs.
Then, as often happens, years go by, things get lost along the way. & Only years later, I came across the LP and as soon as that scratchy sublime sound flooded out of my record player I was straight back there, in my childhood home singing along with my sisters.
Now these songs are part of the landscape of my children's childhood, and that gives me a warm, if not somehow melancholy feeling.
I like this line of continuity, linking my parents, myself & my own children - I wonder if it will carry through the next generation?
(*Please click through to YouTube - the one I selected was Some Velvet Morning - you could choose any they are so beautiful, but the video for this is just amazing X*)
Then chips in the pub (so cold & hungry forgot to take photos!)
And home for coffee, and hot milk for the children.
And sobbing on the sofa at Dr Who :(
I wish you all much happiness for the coming year, thank-you to all of those who visited me here, and those who left comments, I really am thrilled at each one I receive.
