Where we were, Remember? that has passed 30 years now

I started from Helen Merrill, I mean jazz vocal. Then got into Cris Conner, and what was the other two who were called as the three daughters of that famous band leader?

My goodness, my memory is getting worse everyday. Sooner or later I might find difficult to remember own name.

Well, the thing is, when I heard Barbara Streisand first time, I was astounded by the high notes she went.

She wasn't my favorite anyway. For one thing is that her back band had always been full orchestra. Never a combo, or is there?



The way we were, remember Robert Redford? I was very much impressed with this song. Reason? yeah she had feeling. or rather, I'd put it that her voice has the expression.

I cannot recall what was with me though, I got tear comes down every time I hear this song with her. . .

It's nice. My mother died in 1973 at her age of 58, too young. I met a girl who is my present wife in 1974. My father died of cancer in 1978. It's been the best years of my life, yeah. And? I ws 30 years old then.
