This might be the oldest songwriting duo ever, and we love it!
A 102-year-old named Alan Tripp always wanted to record an album.
So he teamed up with an 88-year-old jazz pianist at his retirement community in Pennsylvania. And they just released a Big Band album called the “Senior Song Book.”
Some of the songs Alan wrote are supposed to be funny. Here’s a love song called, “I Just Can’t Remember Your Name.”
It’s about how people at any age can forget someone’s name . . . but obviously it’s even harder to remember at 102.
Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf!
Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
