Subject: RE: BS: The first music that moved you
Brahms lullaby again. I had a teddy with a swiss musical movement. The long suffering bear was called Isiah (one "eye's higher" than the other), and this deformity appealed to my father's sense of humour, hence the music box.

Otherwise, my earliest musical memories are of my Dad's collection of Watersons LPs. Seeing Martin Carthy and Dave Swarbrick live for the first time in 1992 was pretty ground breaking too. Made me want to take up folk guitar and fiddle all at once. not common in a teenager...
