Anton Karas, 1958: Viennese Bonbons, Vol. 3 - Works by J Strauss

[RetroTexas]

Oh, this is such dear music- I wish that I had all three volumes of this. I would drink wine all day and cry myself to sleep at night. Please post all of these wonderfully charming songs as soon as you can-

@RetroTexas I liked your comment so much that I think I will.

@davidhertzberg Thank you, Hertzberg- Your work wouldn't go to waste- I go to visit the little German towns north of San Antonio, and used to hear the old folks sing the German songs late into the night, and say 'Jes, I remember Opa dis unt Oma dat'. So thank you, if you have the time, send us some more Bon Bons-

[davidhertzberg]

@RetroTexas Ok, that's it, you get the whole album. :)

ahah, where I live under my windows every summer an enterprise sets up merry-go-rounds, a trumpeting elephant and other kids stuff, so, the first theme from this video plays repeatedly down there, with elephant blows superimposed, which makes us have fears over the fairground guys' mental health.
