"Come in Central"

Good grief this is something like my 6th try at uploading this track.

For some reason the original recording I made [which typically was better than this one] would not load up try as I might. I attempted to load it from three different devices to no effect. The weird thing is it loaded to youtube with no trouble at all.

Anyhow this is a song I wrote inspired by a couple of very old songs Hello my Baby [hello my honey, hello my rag time gal] that dates from 1899 I believe. And Calling Dr Jazz which I picked up from George Hinchcliffe and UOGB I'm not sure when that was written, the UOGB version was obviously not the original.

So my song is on a similar subject i.e. the early days of the telephone when all the calls went through the operator known as central. I hope I have captured something of the style of that era.

It's played on my Enya plastic and carbon fibre Les Paul shaped uke.
