Description
I have no idea how to record the piano... I try something new every time I try it... my mom has been here for a month... I tuned the piano the day she came.... we recorded several songs the other day.... this is how much my piano goes out of tune in one month... She played several songs... but I asked for this one... she has begun her 80th trip around the sun and claims to only remember half the song... as a young boy i would hear this song ring out through the house... great memories...

I guess it's the month for posting family projects

thanx mom

Congrats to your mom Michael, and to you for getting her to let you record this little ditty. She plays very well for someone 1/2 her age.

Thanks Michael, and Mom for a great listen.

Yee gads and little fishes!
That expression is one my mom used to say when impressed by something. I find this performance both impressive and touching.. impressive, because she obviously has chops, and touching, because she's your mom and she obviously still loves to play piano! My mom also played piano, and she was my first teacher.
