Brings it home. Thank you. It wasn’t my dad, he died when I was young, but my uncle Bud Roberts who was active for years in S.P.E.B.S.Q.S.A. My mom sang too. Harmony. Something lacking these days.

As Charles said, brings it home. My dad could sing tenor in a foursome but we never lived close enough for him to join up (Billings=80 miles of two-lane away). But, later, he took me to many SPEBSQSA concerts during my HS years in Idaho. Carl Hancuff was always the MC.

Great harmony still exists. For twopart, Simon & Garfunkel. Three, the Limeliters. Four (and sometimes five), Spanky and Our Gang and--still performing--the Four Freshmen.

Thank you, Leo, for the warm reminiscence.

Downstream, perhaps one about rhythm?
