A few years back, after my great aunt passed away aged 89, I was kindly gifted her vinyl collection. Being of that particular vintage, her whole collection pretty much consisted of opera, classical, musicals from the 60’s and 70’s and of course the obligatory Kamahl and Harry Secombe.
There is a few old 78’s from the 40’s and 50’s, with the oldest being Bing Crosby and Al Jolson, recorded 1947.
However special mention must go to one true masterpiece sitting amongst My Fair Lady, Doctor Zhivago and Fiddler on the roof, there it was! The original soundtrack of Deliverance from 1972, Gold!! Who would have thought banjo tunes from the deep-south was her jam. Nice one Aunty Nell!
