Thread Name: Earliest music memory
Subject: RE: Earliest music memory
LOL, Kendall!

The earliest "music" I can remember is my parents singing things like "I've Been Working on the Railroad," and "Sweet Betsy from Pike," and "Mairzy Doats," and even, God forbid, "99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall" in the car. Beyond that, probably recordings of Rogers and Hammerstein musicals and Gilbert & Sullivan. There were probably some schoolyard ditties as well, but fortunately those have faded...
