The link below will take you to a set a photos that I am making a DVD of for our next family reunion to pass out. What I need is ideas on what type or names or songs I can put with these photos to make my DVD. You can tell these photos go from old, old to last year. I have no idea what kind of music to use. Help me if you can. thanks, Vicki

I think the Archie Bunker theme song would be perfect!
If I think of anything else, I'll let you know!

Family Reunion - The O'Jays

Thanks. I'll try all of them and see which one or ones work best. It's always a challange coming up with songs for these picture DVD's. If anyone things of more let me know.

I would use pieces of different songs for each picture such as:

The House... "Our House" by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

Mammy & Pawpaw... "Hey Loretta , I love you more than my Irish Setter"
by Loretta Lynn
Mammy & 4 kids... " One's on the Way"
by Loretta Lynn

I'll try to think of some more. This would be a very funny way to show off these wonderful photos with tongue in cheek twist. Or so it seems to me.
These are all available on youtube, if you want to check 'em out. Many Loretta Lynn songs or George Jones & Tammy Wynette would work well, but it would take a bit of research. This could be great fun.

"Thanks for the Memories"

How about The Judd's

"Grandpa Tell Me Bout The Good Old Days"

Take care,
Mike

Thanks guys and gals. There are some great suggestions here. Now I will have to take each song and see how it works with me pictures. I knew ya'll would come up with good stuff. Vicki

Can you tell I used to be a country western Deejay in the Urban Cowboy period...

here's a few more ideas:

Mammy....................................Mama's Opry by Iris Dement

PawPaw.................................... Daddy's Hands by Emmylou Harris

50 years................................... Tennessee Walts (Various artists but my favorite is Lacy J. Dalton.)

Chuck Palm · #13 (**permalink**) June 12th, 2009, 08:37 PM

and more:

Paw Paw 1990...................."Crazy Blue Eyes" by Lacy J. Dalton or "Cowboys Don't Shoot Straight Like They Used To" by Tammy Wynette

Gold. Aniv. Party.................Family Tradition by Hank Williams Jr.

Mammy & Pawpaw.............. "Daydreams" by Jane Olivor or "Some Enchanted Evening" by Jane Olivor

Chuck Palm · #14 (**permalink**) June 12th, 2009, 08:49 PM

Iwould use "Let's Make Some Memories" by Jane Olivor as an intruduction or beginning piece and if you don't mind a moment of sadness try "First Night Alone Without You" by Jane Oliver perhaps with one of the solo Pawpaw photos. I don't know the whole story so it is difficult to know what is and what is not appropriate.

I hope these help you in some little way.
