I was around 8 years old when for my birthday I was given a little record player and a my first album. The artist.... STOMPIN' TOM CONNORS. And I was a city girl! But he did have a couple of fun songs that were easy to sing to.
Never thought about ol' Tom or about that little pink and white record player for a very long time. Until now, when I had the opportunity to go see Tom in concert.
WOW. At 75 his voice is still strong and he really is quite entertaining. I was blown away at the ages of his audience! There were a lot of young adults there, which was so cool to see. Tom truly is a Canadian Icon, and I am fortunate to have had the opportunity to see him.
It's neat how memories of the past can come back and bring a smile.
