The Mother's Curse!

my mom definitely got into it but it was him bringing it into the house.
...i think the idea of getting the 45s was his idea too -in an effort to save the marriage, but mostly her choices.
i think she preferred silence best of all.

In my father's last days and hours, I would sit with him and play for hours and hours Louis Armstrong & His Hot Five on my phone. Mostly the song "Tight Like This," which was his favorite.
