Music in My Life
by Ray Guillette

Thank goodness for music in my life!
Here are some early musical memories as they come to mind:

Dad's electric guitar.

Dad playing the Batman TV Theme while my sister and I jump on our beds.
Dad playing "Puff the Magic Dragon" as we start to run low on energy.

Mom singing:
You've got to get up!
You've got to get up!
You've got to get up in the morning!
...while birdsong is playing loudly on the kitchen radio.

My Uncles singing Christmas Carols together around the piano at our house.

The small electric organ my parents gave me for Christmas.
