85 Years of Music and Memories Part 1

I was doodling on a piece of paper and started to write titles of songs that brought back memories and before I knew it I had 500 titles!! Well, after 85 years of songs that mean something to you, that trigger a memory keep on coming back--so here are some of the songs, in no particular order--and in some case a snippet of memory!



1. 1945--the first time I remember being stunned by a song and singer in a Broadway Musical: John Raitt singing the "Soliloquy" in "Carousel" https://youtu.be/CKCUapUEFkY


2. "But Not For Me"--Ella Fitzgerald--1950s--Everod Baths, NYC https://youtu.be/FnfUN6bBAg4


3. "Love Is A Many Splendored Thing"--1955--Chinese Grauman Theatre--met Jennifer Jones--I was in the Marines--one of my top favorite movies--song sung at the end by the 4 Aces 'destroyed' me https://youtu.be/4U5zkF3OJOM


4. "Look of Love"--1967--Sergio Mendez--Bernie--Weight Watchers--The Boys in the Band--moved to Memphis https://youtu.be/HAFYlBg_1u0


5."I Wish You Love" Keely Smith--Basin Street East--I was 23--a young romantic nightclub kidhttps://youtu.be/WPJ-J3NUUyk
