Loch Lomond / 1941 Hollywood
My Dad would have been eighty-eight years old this week. He always claimed that Martha Tilton, a singer with the Benny Goodman Orchestra, was his cousin.
Who knows? Dad was not one to let a few facts spoil a good story.

Miss Tilton also recorded a pop hit in 1942 of "Coming Through the Rye", a Robert Burns poem set to music.
