When listening to the Sean Hannity show online, during breaks there was an instrumental patriotic piece, sounds a little "Irish" with flute and drums. Would like to know name/artist.
No but thanks. Can not believe it is this hard to find it!
I did hear that they may be the same. I am going through the Heritage clips to see if I hear it.
Thanks, I did that. I am waiting for an answer ....
Thanks, I thought it was more likely to be the radio, but I had to make sure. Nothing comes to mind, but I thought I’d record a show and check it out and will let you know if I can recognize the music.
I had a similarly frustrating experience with a song on Laura Ingraham’s show; only it was a recent song that I’d heard on the radio. Do you know how often radio dj’s don’t identify a song and/or the performers nowadays? It’s as if they don’t care about selling the music anymore. After searching the samples on the various online music stores, I finally heard one word of the title and finally found it, so there’s hope.
Yes, I was kidding. I’m 44 years old; when I was a young girl, we had 45s and a few 78s, and the machine that played them was the size of a top-loading freezer.
And yes, I knew about the poet Wolfe Tone.
Well duh, don’t I look silly.(I’m 54). True story. A couple of years ago a buddy of mine told me his then 18 year-old son was looking around in their attic and he came down with one of his dads 33’s(I think it was a Led Zepplin record) he said “Dad, what’s this? My friend had to explain to his son what a vinyl record was!
I went for a number of years, back in the late 80s/early 90s, without buying any new music. One day I decided I wanted a record, so I walked up the road to a music store and started looking around, but all they had were CDs. I asked a young employee with a pierced nose if they had record albums, and he said, “What?” “Record albums, those round, black things about the size of a dinner plate.” The youth said, “We don’t sell those. Try a used book store!”
My son still plays my albums
Cool. What kind of a turn table do you have and where do you get a replacement needle if you need one?
Kind of dates you, doesn’t it? I had a similar reaction when one of my nieces jumped up to to grab the tv remote and without thinking I said ‘’Don’t touch that dial!’’ Well, the wind-up is old gray-haired, spectacle warning uncle had to explain to my 12 year-old niece what a tv ‘’dial’’ was and how we had to change channels in ‘’the old days’’!
Another thing that’s funny is that little children don’t recognize the shape of a telephone handset from “our” era. There are old toy telephones around, and they have no idea what they are. Anything small and rectangular can be a telephone or a remote control. My kids call them all “beebers” ;-).
I have a Technics SL-D2 and Sansui P-D30. I also have Technics SL table on reserve.
I haven’t needed a new cartridge yet.
Awesome. I had an Onkyo (sp?) turntable. It’s in the attic somewhere.
The song I think you are referring to is “The way it is” by Bruce Hornsby
