Three Tune Tuesday - Sept 13 - a Week of Firsts
Can you believe it's already September? Can you believe it's already September 13?? It's my daughter's birthday today. 26!! Just yesterday I was teaching her to ride a bike.
It's also Tuesday, and that means it's another week for @ablaze's Three Tune Tuesday initiative! For me, this week, it is a week of firsts.
I broadcast a live show of my Three Tune Tuesday compilation on my internet radio site https://blindskeleton.one/radio. Literally, I air the show live and spin the records live as a good DJ should. It's a lot of fun. This week, alas, I had to pre-record the show, as I was - and still am - away on business. Pre-recording was a first for me, and one I hope to not repeat.
Another first is that this is the first time I have missed any of my children's birthdays, also for the same reason of being away on business. Life goes on. I will have the podcast of the show up on the Blind Skeleton website by the end of the week.
There is a third first, later in the post.
The music I choose is often inspired in at least some part on the week's events, my adventures, or happenings outside my window. This past week, of course, the Queen of England passed, leaving us with a King of England. Inspiration was easy this week.
Let's start this week with the King Cotton March, a lively tune by the Victor Military Band. I like the Victor Military Band, if only for their name.
Next up is a tune by the Trinity Choir. It is a choir song and, as such, The King's Business could be either a secular or non-secular song. Take your pick, but it suits the week.
The final song of the week is my third first of the week. The songs that I share for TTT are all played from my personal collection of 78rpm records, and this next song is no different. It is also played on one of my own phonographs, just like the others. Up to this point, however, all my songs have been from prior to 1923. This next, a version of God Save the King, is from 1944. Sadly, I did not have an older version of it, but I could not find a more suitable way to end this week's selections.
And there you have it. Have a greek week, everyone, and I hope you have success with your own business. God Save you All!

What I Learned Today
Like clockwork another throw back Tuesday with @wwwiebe, that second song sounds like an Irish guy singing if I am not mistaken..
Happy belated birthday to your daughter and sorry to hear that you missed it due to work, well at least you got to 26 years without missing one, which is really impressive to be fair.
Actually, Albert Campbell was an American, and Henry Burr was Canadian. Burr was born in New Brunswick, however, which is probably the source of his accent.
I was definitely sad to miss her birthday, but I left her a good bottle of fresh mead. All is good on that front. 😁
