And thought they were from 60-63.

I bought her this CD and she played it for as long as she could remember how to work the player.

Not sure she liked the Surf Guitar tunes but all the big band songs were golden for her.

Told everyone it was her son's record that he gave her.

She told me that too after she lost her ability to recognize me.

So, yeah. This album carries some heavy freight with me

Edited to add - I intended this as a reply to Beausoleil

Fortunately my parents are still sharp as tacks in their late 80's.

I remember them playing Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller, Artie Shaw and the Dorseys when I was growing up. Not sure how they'd like BSO though!
