Grr - can't find an old picture to match - so here's one of Dad singing.
I'm re-recording 2 cassette tapes made in 1973, 1974 by WB Gillis Jr and Unk Bob Gillis - sent to Rob Chaz Schroeder. Bobbi Balek (Schroeder) found them while going through her dad's things, and sent them back to mom (Roberta Gillis (Schepar)) - who I just heard signing something like the "I'm my own grandpa song". I wish the audio was better, but it's a labor of love. It wasn't very good to begin with (no reflection on the musicians) - and half the fun is hearing the laughter/ conversations going on in the background. Stirring up memories. OK - sshhh - 45 minutes to go. I hope they do Irene Goodnight again. That seems to be the one everybody knows the words too!
