As my grandson turns 13 I started reminiscing about the magic of the 1960s, a decade that truly defined the music scene for me and my two older brothers forever.

The British Invasion was an iconic moment in pop culture history, and the blending of musical styles between the UK and the US during that time are fascinating subjects in ways that resonate even today. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0169528/

This dark image is of me on TV.  I’m in the front row on the left next to the man with a full beard. while singing on PBS Television

I may be losing my voice but I used to have a nice one. I sang harmony well and enjoyed singing along with a local  NYC choral group, and with a rock band, and in the shower.

The activity brought me a lot of joy, but now, my voice sounds like I have a permanent cold. I also used to play music competently, but now I can no longer reach the high notes. It's very difficult to accept this new reality.
