Here is a recording we made shortly after my Dad learned the tunes. We deleted a number of attempts and kept this to gauge future progress. The app that I used, has once again jumped in several places throughout the recording. Despite being far from satisfactory, I have posted it because of Dezzy's valid observations about the lack of submissions from members.

'LET HIM GO, LET HIM TARRY'/'THE HAPPY WANDERER'/'I'VE GOT SIXPENCE' in C on Hohner tremolo mouth organs.

Thanks guys! It so good to see my Dad enjoying our daily sessions and hear his little chuckles at the end of the of tunes. I've just found some recordings we made a few weeks after this one, using another app (with video of me!!) that are a lot better. Unfortunately, they are too big to load or the wrong file. If anyone can tell me how I can post them, I would be grateful.

Most take mp3 & wav, some take ogg, or mpv/mpeg. Other hosting sites to try are Soundcloud & Vimeo.

Ian, that was great. And yes it’s good to have some there to look back on and see improvement. It’s good to play with your father to make it interesting. I enjoyed it and that’s what I mean about posting, We can be with you and if needed say something we think would be better. Good on you!
Ian, the problem you seem to have is recording. Can you record onto your computer through the youtube . Do you have youtube .
I would like to engage some feedback between members to get you onto a simple recording device. Youtube is the simplest one i know, I use it.
See, you engaged Sarge, Keith and Rex. That’s what a forum does.

Thanks for the replies.

I might not be posting for a while because two weeks ago my wife was diagnosed with a very serious illness. She had an operation last Monday and is now at home, but the Surgeon wants to see again her tomorrow.

I will be back here when I can.
