Sister Wendy Collection
- Who's watched: M & G
Mentions: *1*
Commentary: Aside from the comments in the Mention, above, you should know that the theme for the series casts a spell over me, as well. My mother never tired of watching these videos. Neither do I.
Update 8/2/21: I've been trying hard, on and off, over the years, to figure out a way to upload the musical theme from the Sister Wendy shows to this post, without success. Blogger doesn't want to recognize it as uploadable, even though it is an mp3 that can play on a video application. So, finally, today, I searched the web for a place where you, dear reader, can hear it. All the sites I found do the tune the indignity of cutting short it by a few seconds. The copy I downloaded in 2014 does the same. But, I can tell you, when I played it on my computer, today, I teared up, as I always do when I hear it. It is an indescribably tender piece of music. Download it. Put it on your player. Right now.
