Mai and Fred

Hi,

Here are a few songs from my grandfather and grandmother. They recorded this in their mid to late 20’s, at the time they were touring to Rio De Janeiro by ship.

My favorite song starts at 3:49…enjoy!

Here’s an earlier post from my grandfather’s senior citizen band.

Side 1 of a Papa tape

I have a tape that was Grandfather’s (Papa):

This is side 1 of the tape, it contains a number of different recordings from various gigs. It was made by a friend, he must have played in a band and known Papa for a while… I’m not sure who the fellow is, but sure am glad he made the recording.

A joke from a friend

How did I do this? I purchased a cassette voice recorder and some cabling ($30), and downloaded Audacity (to digitize the cassette).

Warmly,

Kyle
