Early Each Day to the Steps of St. Paul's . . .

 

Richard and Robert Sherman pretty much wrote the music of my childhood.

I grew up pretty indifferent to most music. I liked classical music because my Dad liked it. Pop music was pretty much unknown territory, except for a few things that penetrated my skull from the AM radio in the kitchen.

Then there was Disney. Lots of Disney music.

Most of that due to Richard and Robert Sherman.

Richard Sherman passed away today at the age of 95, following his brother Robert who died in 2012.

I guess maybe I thought both of them had already passed on. Anyway, thank you, Brothers Sherman, for making my childhood more musical than it might have been.
