Derek and Elsie's Musical Memories
So here is an interesting (we hope!) page of links to a variety of music that should bring back some memories for you .... hopefully good ones!
These have come from three main sources:
- Most are links to YouTube where you can hear various recorded songs and hymns. (please note that sometimes you have to watch a short advert first - but you can click to 'skip ad' after a few seconds.)
- Some are from the family archives - vintage recordings we made in the 70s and 80s on Joy's cassette recorder, that have recently been rediscovered.
- A few are recorded by us this week, especially for this project, where there is no other record of a song we wanted to include, or where we wanted to record our own version for you.
