No respite as we move onto the next online “Name That Tune”. Last weeks tunes were: Sailor – Glass of Champagne, and The Commodores – 3 Times a Lady.
Sailor were in their time well known for the instrument they created that consisted basically of two pianos back to back. Does anyone know what this instrument was called?

all by myself by eric carmen
Upon reading up on Sailor, who I was not familiar with, I read that the instrument is the “Nickelodeon”?
1. Giving It All Away, Roger Daltrey I think, though I know Leo Sayer also did a version of this song.
2. All By Myself, Eric Carmen not to be confused with the Eric Cartman version of Come Sail Away.
Song #1 is by the great Roger Daltrey, song is…Giving It All Away. Just a side note Im a huge fan of THE WHO and all British Invasion Groups.
Song # 2 is by Eric Carmen, Song is….All By Myself, again one of the greatest classic ballads of all time.
1. Giving It All Away – Roger Daltrey
2. All By Myself – Eric Carmen
the first is daltry, roger that is, and giving it all away. the second is all by myself by eric carmen.
by the way, the piano piano was called a nickelodeon !
I know that song #2 is “All By Myself” but don’t remember who sang it
