my papaw was quite a tenor singer in his heyday. towards the end, (he passed on at 76 y.o.) it frustrated him greatly that he "didn't have the wind" as well. this is lovely! thank you for sharing :)
Lovely! Better than those musicians that perfect every tune and sound amazing..but they only do it for the praise and glory! Music isnt sposed to be about that! The love of playing is the only reason someone should do it! :] x
Nice one! Watching this I'm guessing he learned to play the whistle decades ago. Longer than most of us have been alive. It's probably been years since he played again? Good to see.
I love old people who are still playing.
Old Uncle Dave Macon played his Banjer
right up to the day he died.
Check out an ole girl called Aunt Vi,
she plays the Ukulele.
Please ask your grandad to play for us
"WHEN I´M 64", he propably digs that one.
