Enjoying the Ukrainian music by the Frazer River Boys.. I knew all 4 of them and one of Harrys daughters happen to be my sister in law so... Im hard of hearing, but I always liked that as my folks used to listen to a lot of Ukrainian music over the years and even danced in the kitchen at home sometimes... once in a while if im in the mood I want to listen to some of this and look back over the years as well on the farm and seeing the band play at the local hall...

When I had the old 8-track play/recorder when I got a good piece of music like this I would set it up so I could record the tune on the cassette first then re-record it on to the 8-track repeatedly so I had a long playing of the same tune.
