Michelle said...: I don't know why I'm so fascinated by old sheet music. I don't plan an instrument, but I always want to bring some home.

So far, I've been resisting the temptation.; December 1, 2011 at 12:30 AM
c. Joy said...: Do you sing these or play an instrument? Or did you have a crush on Hank Snow or Eddie Arnold? Just curious. Have a great week.; December 1, 2011 at 6:04 AM

A DAY WITHOUT SCARLET

A day without scarlet, they say,
Can color the soul ashen-grey;
For if there’s no red,
The soul feels half-dead,
And has no incentive to play.

Nani said...: I love the old sheet music! (I'm also a Frank Sinatra fan!) I kept some of m,y great-grandmother's music that she has when she played guitar. I played for a while and she was tickled when I did because she had played.

Thanks for bringing that sweet memory to my mind! :); December 1, 2011 at 7:43 AM

RachelD said...: I can just feel and smell the crackly paper of that sheet music. Our piano bench was filled with these.

And I'd spend almost as much time at the music rack in our little drugstore as most kids did at the comic books.; December 1, 2011 at 12:22 PM
Unknown said...: Whoa! Brings many a memory back! ... when music was truly music.

Have a lovely weekend ~

Heart2Heart said...: LV,

You already know my love for VINTAGE things and music is definitely one of them. Who would know that the music I made fun of my parents for listening to, I am now enjoying in my 40's.

Times were much different, more simple and it comes across in the music even more.
