My grandpa sung in this group. These songs are timeless, I love them.
ReplyDeleteFrank Braden was my teacher in the 5th grade. He was a good teacher as well as fun and a good singer and pianst. I bought this record when it came out, but lost it after all these years. I am so glad to get to hear again. Thanks. So much.
