Nostalgic Love Songs

Evolution of This Series of Recordings

Other than David singing since elementary school choirs, here are other events that contributed to creation of the Nostalgic Love Song series of EPs.

• Around 1991, his friend Terry asked him to record duets with him, which were mostly nostalgic love songs.
• That led to recording, and privately releasing roughly 2 years later in 1993, the album Solo Collection. (Note. It's private release was accompanied by creation of TortoiseClimbing™.) That too was mostly nostalgic love songs.

Note. Another critical event that enabled, and strongly influenced being able to record several of the initial songs, and the following Solo Collection album, was being introduced to the fantastic piano accompanist, Ms. Nancy Reid. (She previously was accompanist to the pops chorus, Alexandria Singers. For details about Ms. Nancy Reid see Nancy Reid.)

• Solo Collection was followed by work on recording a follow on private album (working title of Romantic Duets, as yet unreleased). (Again, that unreleased album is mostly nostalgic love duets from the 1980's and early 1990's.) Recording the Romantic Duets album was put on hold when I was asked to record Hymns and Songs of My Mother (released in summer 2024). (While not romantic love songs, they are traditional, nostalgic old hymns.)
• Because we decided to become a for-profit entity early during Phase II work to complete Hymns and Songs of My Mother, we needed to develop the Business Plan laying out TortoiseClimbing™'s vision. An important component of Business Plans is articulating products you are going to market.
• Articulating our vision for future products caused us to realize we have always been focused on Nostalgic Love Songs. Initial product thoughts were to upgrade the quality of the beginning songs, and the 1993 Solo Collection songs, to meet our high quality standard for public releases.
• That quickly expanded to encompass upgrading the quality of our entire back catalogue of nostalgic love songs for public release, and to continue recording Nostalgic Love Song EPs for public release.

FYI - Research since has found plenty of nostalgic love songs for continuing this series. There are even numerous nostalgic Christmas songs.
