My First LP Record

April 28th, 2009 Brian

In 1960 I was acting Postmaster at Gwalia in the Goldfields of Western Australia. Two friends and myself joined the Concert Hall Record Club. The first LP record we received was Beethoven’s Pastoral Symphony. I remember being moved by the sound of the orchestra in that first movement. I played the record many times and after many months I wore it out. I ordered the same record again and wore that record out also. I still have both records in my house.

I instruct piano/keyboard classes at LVS Online
