I’m older than he was, when he made this. (In fact, I was just a few years younger than this, when I started piano lessons…)
ETA:
I like this, for some reason:
I used to watch LW as a kid, I believe it was on every Saturday evening. I liked watching all the different types of instruments. IIRC my parents went to a taping (while we lived near L.A.) and this would have been before they turned thirty. (Their record collection consisted of things like Henry Mancini, Al Hirt, Enoch Light, Ferrante & Teicher… [maybe they were hand-me-downs from their parents] OK so nowadays I can appreciate Henry Mancini… but to their credit, we spent a short time living in St. Croix so they did bring back some Byron Lee and steel pan records.)
Furthermore I’m going to hazard a guess that LW was on TV way more than, say, The Beatles but that’s not how we remember the 1960s.
