Train Music and Memories
My Daddy played Harmonica and this was one of his Favorites. I thought about it because Tipper mentioned train music on her post Train Music at the end of the Tunnel
Daddy is second from the left, this is 3 of his 4 brothers. Julian is missing. taken 1944

My dad also had 4 brothers, plus 2 sisters. Loved that video, got me moving this morning. I can see why it was your dads favorite
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love train whistles. Especially in the middle of the night. It's one of the reasons I like to keep my windows open at night because I can hear the train whistle go through Mesa a couple of times. It is so eerily haunting and totally lovely all at the same time. I've always loved trains.
ReplyDeleteGreatFamily pics.
ReplyDeleteHarmonica...WOW
My Father had two brothers.
I know this song!!! Phil and our friend play it at parties!! Hiram does the harmonica and Phil plays the accordian and everyone claps!
ReplyDeleteThat was a wonderful post Sandra. Dad's are such special people. I enjoyed the music video too!
ReplyDeleteLove that song.... I've heard it off and on my entire life.... Our family was very musical --but none of us played the harmonica.. My brother Jimmy played the accordion. I played the piano --so we had some great family music time growing up...
ReplyDeleteLove that picture of your Daddy... You have some great memories, don't you?
Hugs,
Betsy
He's pretty good but I don't think I know the song. sandie
ReplyDeleteLove the pix from the past and good memories about the harmonica. It is hard to believe all the spectacular sound that can come out of a harmonica! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice tribute to your father The song is a great one, especially for harmonics.
ReplyDeleteI love to see pictures from the past, I guess it comes from all the time I spend on genealogy. I remember hearing this song when I lived in the south.
ReplyDeleteOh I love this Sandra!! The photo and the great harmonica..one of my favorite sounds!! Great post!
ReplyDeleteHearing the trains whistle carried on the wind at night is one of my favorite, most comforting sounds... love it.
