My mom sang this to me when I a little boy. 50+ years later when she passed, I sang it to her as she peacefully passed away one night. 😢😢

Can you post Raffi's Children Favorites Player Piano Roll?

[@miligatz]

Sorry...I don't have that one. Checked on QRS and Ebay...not there either. Was it made?

[@christyscott4692]

very good, although i have no idea how those self playing pianos work.

[@miligatz]

Try this video: Piano roll production at QRS Music
I think it is of a film made back in the 80s or so, but it explains how they work.
