Yes Fred,, plaid was and always will be in style. I think I had outgrown my farmer bib overall's at this time.

  I have a Bell & Howell, reel to reel tape recorder and I think somewhere on one of the tape's I have recordings of me playing the organ when I was about 18, i'll try to find it and post an audio. If I can find it, I have a bunch of tapes.   

                                                  clock Two hour's later….. I found tapes, but they are so old they keep breaking when I rewind and come to a sudden stop. I threw away about a 1000 feet of tape.  Grrrrrr…….. facepalm   red_cursing    The tape's are from the late 50's and early 60's, so they are old.

Always loved your story Ken; you've got a LOT to share with us!

Btw, what a dapper lad you were, lol, I think I had that same outfit when I was 8; plaid was mighty fine back then.

Still is to some of our members!!
