It's time again for Three Tune Tuesday, that day of the week where members of the Hive community shares three songs of their liking with the rest of the community.

I take a slow, relaxing approach to Three Tune Tuesday: I like to share pre-1924 78rpm songs from my collection, and record them while playing on an appropriate time-period windup phonograph. I encourage you to take a few moments and slow down with me. Settle down, close your eyes, and take yourself back.. way back.. in time, to a distant uncle's parlour in the early 1920's. There are comfortable seats, pleasant conversation, and old music.
This week's Three Tune Tuesday was inspired by the loss of a dear friend, Finnegan the Cat. Cats have been with us since prehistory, keeping us safe from rodents and providing companionship. They were revered by the ancient Egyptians, and even the Norse goddess Freya had two large cats pull her chariot through the sky.
We dive into a long discussion about cats in the podcast if you're so inclined to listen. Otherwise, the songs we played are right here:
- The Cat and the Canary
- Teasing the Cat
- That Cat Step (my personal favourite of the three)
And a bonus song!
