Re: Bill Murray
When I was in my “tweens” back in the 1970’s, Mr. Murray was my first recognizable acoustic recording artist.
That was when Wheeling IL had a flea market at the old drive in Theater on Sunday mornings. 78 Records usually were a quarter a piece.
Later I was able to ride my AMF Hercules three speed to our local public library. And discovered Jim Walsh’s Hobbies Magazine articles.
Now information can be accessed on our phones.
