DH attends Alzheimer's Society day care once a week and was as bored as the others with their 40's and wartime singalongs. He has taken along some of the CD's from his time playing with a 'dinner dance & wedding band'. No song sheets required, the members sing a long to the CDs which feature the 'standards' from the 60's & 70's. Things like, Raindrops keep falling on my head, Born with a smile on my face, Proud Mary, Mandy,
When he later took along CD's from his time with a Scottish Country Dance/Ceilidh Band, these proved to be an even bigger success as the folk could not only singalong to the tunes (Mhairi's Wedding, I belong to Glasgow, Loch Lomond, etc. but even got up and started to dance.
