music, thoughts, books, dreams, more

Just my world of dreams, music and thoughts. Author of two books, one a novel of Love stories set in Framingham, Mass, Secrets of the Heart the 2nd book an autobiography of growing up in Framingham, Mass. Small Town America, Framingham My generation was the first teenage generation, that was when the word was coined. Ours was the generation that started cruising through town and to the drive in theater and drive in restaurant. In our area, Ernie Kampersal,from Holliston, drove his bucking car through town, picking up girls. It rose in the air, like a stallion! We went to the soda shops and played the juke boxes. It was a different town, a different time, and it belonged to us!

13. Stéphane Grappelli, A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square

This song always had Meggie, the character in my book thinking of what it was like to be young, in love , and being sent off to war, leaving behind your loved ones.  Meggie talks about emotions of World War 2, in," Secrets of the Heart,"
This is old and hard to find, so be sure to get it , if you love Stephane as I do.  He is in my car collection of music for the winter.  Looking now for some Mel Torme, remember him?
