    Could anything prove music is good for the soul more than this fabulous interview! I don't think so. I'm so glad this was preserved for other generations to witness the singing, the playing, the stories, the speech patterns & just how good you can look in old age after a long life of decent living. I think they are both young at heart. Thanks for posting this. God bless 'em!
