I only remember Frankie Vaughan singing Green Door, and doing that high kick as he sang it. My Mum used to love him.

The Pink Toothbrush song was Max Bygraves as I recall.

As a kid I used to love Tommy Steele's 'Little White Bull.'

I've still got the single of that, bought for me by an ex boyfriend after he took me to see the film. Tommy the Toreador.

My first musical memory was of my mother playing this on our piano:


I must have been about 4 or 5.

I got all excited then Dex. I thought it'd be what I remember my mum playing. But it wasn't.

For all her ills, my mum was a wonderful pianist and try as I might to find out the name of the piece I loved her playing, I can't. Short of going into somewhere humming it, I'll never find it. It's a famous piece.... and goes duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh duh, duh, duh.... duh, duh, duh duh, duh, duh, duh, duh. But you can't hear that

I suppose it was mum playing the piano, grandad played trumpet in Sally Army, so I suppose really those were my first intro to music.

It's hard to remember what the years were but I remember a 78s collection. I remember records of Mario Lanza and others, and the one I remember being played lots was:




................



Edited!!!!

Yay! I found the piece I menioned in bold above! But, unless I'm missing something, I can't find the name of it in the listed pieces being played, and it's only a small portion being played before it cuts off.
Does anyone know please?
It's the last piece here at 3.31
