I had an LP as a child 60+ years ago about a fowl in the hen house so ugly it was bullied and ridiculed by all the other "birds" insesantly. Then one night a fox raided the hen house and was frightened away by this ugly creature saving everyone's life. While still ugly was now the hero. Even the next morning when it turned into an adult swan. Anyone know where I might obtain that LP? Or a series of golden 45's titled "Little black Sambo's Jungle Band"? Sambo was an east Indian child (not an American Negro) who introduced us to various musical instruments as animals in the jungle. Ex: the big baboon and his big bassoon. And another LP "Genie the Record" which takes us anywhere the imagination can go by the magic of sound. The circus, the zoo, the ocean etc. When you turned it over to play the flip side the first sound you heard was the sound of a record being scratched by the needle. Where the record itself says "Oooo, Ouch!!! be careful. Probably should have made these three separate posts...oh well.

Special forum features: inserting music notation, posting audio recordings.
How to insert music:
Add a bit of sheet music, along with a MIDI file, simply by entering note names in Lilypond syntax between the [L] and [/L] tags.
For example, you can try what happens if you enter: [l]g'4 g'4 d''4 d''4 e''4 e''4 d''2[/l] (use the Preview function if you don't actually want to post this).
You can create these lists of note names by clicking on piano keys here.
How to post an audio recording:
If you just want to sing, whistle, or play a melody so that other forum visitors can hear it, follow these steps:
- Record your audio here.
- You should notice a 32-character hash code, something like: 2a40281c5001c5a7d8c9f57fcdeccfaf
- copy this hash code and paste it into a forum post, enclosed in the audio tags, for example: [audio]2a40281c5001c5a7d8c9f57fcdeccfaf[/audio]
How to mark a thread as solved:
If the original question in a thread is solved, please mark it as solved using the "solved" icon (or by just typing [solved] into your post). This makes life easier for people who are willing to identify melodies, since unsolved problems are easier to spot that way. If a problem turns out to not be solved after all, just write [/solved] in a new post, and the thread will be labeled accordingly.
