Okay boomers ... rock out to this

Mr. Lombardo passed in 1977. When I was finally old enough I heard this every New Years at the stroke of midnight. I can't really remember my age but I'm thinking at 7 or 8 my parents would wake us up a bit before midnight so we could watch the ball drop. Then we'd go outside and bang pots and pans, screaming HAPPY NEW YEAR
Now if I make it to 10:00 it's an achievement.

On edit: His last New Years eve

Happy New Year DU

2. Guy Lumbago was one of Mom's favorites. She was a child of the '20's-30's

That music was right up her ally... Long time ago in a far away place, eh?
