Yes, my mother was a piano teacher. I only play with I'm in the mood.

You know what? I think it would sound awesome if the person was really talented on it.

Wow, if I played the Piano it would be with "Stumbling fingers & other thumbs!"


My wife can play the piano somewhat, my youngest daughter Alanna is inclined to music as well.

I don't play by ear. Just read music. I play in church some, but it isn't something I would enjoy on a regular basis. Too much temperamental stuff going on in the music department. I like to relax when I'm involved with music.

I was in my Barber and he is almost the exact age as myself, we grew up blocks apart, and he listens to an oldies station Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby, Nat King Cole, and I noticed that some of them were good.

Am I telling on my age, or is ther others that like them?

Or are they just too worldly?

I LOVE Frank, Bing, Nat King Cole, Dean Martin, Jackie Gleason, -- all of them from that era.

There was a great singer from the early 60s...part of the 'British Invasion' but not rock.

His name is Matt Monro...Walk Away is a great song. I think he passed some time ago...what a great voice!!

I like some of those old guys like Frank and Dean. My wife says I am crazy and should have been born in the 1920's..................
