Music

This gramophone from the early 1900 to mid 1960's
was a joy to have in our houses - especially mine 
that both my father who played accordeon and my 
mother who loved to sing, (the did have a fantastic voice)
was our home theater and we kept listening to 
great voices, instruments, ballads, operas, but keep in
mind that we had to keep turning a handle and have
a very new and clean needle and of course the

33 records. Our collection was mainly of great

opera singers like Caruso, Mario Lanza, Puccini

and many more Italian singers.  Lordy lordy the

hours and hours of music that was floating in our

living room.  When the first radios started to be

affordable these gramophones we disposed off 

and today only very few are still around.  Those

were the days of great music at least for me,

even today I love soft music and not those 

people who shout instead of singing. 

Times passes on and who knows what will be

our next musical instruments ....
