It is amazing to me how what you are interested in as a child remains with you when you are in your developing years and into your adult years. This video was taken when I was 21 months old. I got a tricycle and rocking horse from Santa. My cousin Carolyn got a toy piano. I was more interested in the piano as you will see. Grandpa says, "No Ricky, this is YOUR gift over here!" He sits me on the tricycle. I'm still not so passionate about my vehicles - but I remain very passionate about the piano. This movie is exactly 50 years old this Christmas.

The music is a recording from when I was five years old. It was recorded by my mom and dad. I was playing a Hammond organ. The old album contains about 30 minutes of Christmas tunes, some on the piano, some on the organ. Hope you enjoy this sneak peek into my past. Do any of you cling to those childhood interests and passions like I do?
