Joe Meek Introduction Apparently, the first song that I ever liked according to my uncle Trevor was "Hound Dog" by Elvis Presley, I was three at the time and a picture was taken of me with curly blonde hair but I have not been able to track it down, though my sister Yvonne has all our old photographs which I have scanned, but that one is sadly missing.

Come Be My Love
Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to be all flowers, chocolates, and cakes. It can be just a quiet romantic time together by candlelight with sparkling red wine, and romantic songs playing in the background. Take your love and dance in the dark as your shadows slide along the wall.

A Few Shades Of Pink (Floyd)
Introduction My friend Cathy wrote a poem (see the end of this article) taking in the titles of Pink Floyd albums and last week I listened to all the Pink Floyd albums in my collection. While I have a preference for the Floyd of my teenage years I can find something I like in every one of their albums but this will be very selective because there is so much music to choose from.
