I Love Music

I Love Music by Charlie Girard – White Mountain – 1000 pieces

This was a bright and beautiful collage image that was lots of fun to assemble. And as an added bonus I was happy to work with the new finish that White Mountain used, I liked it very much.

This puzzle had very good quality for this brand. Sometimes it can be hit or miss, but I put up with little annoyances because they have such a great catalog of collages – and my readers know that they are my puzzle happy place. It had a variety of piece shapes, relatively thick chipboard, a very good fit, a lovely matte finish, and good image reproduction. Many of the posters seemed blurry, but I think that may be because they used the old images which weren’t the sharpest. All in all it was the nicest White Mountain puzzle I’ve done in quite a while.

Love the colors and the look of this one – and the “address” is funny to me. Max Yasgur’s farm. I was one year old in 1969, so I definitely do not remember Woodstock.

This concert was twenty years earlier, in 1949 – when my mom was just under two years old! The difference between Billie Holiday’s music and the music of the sixties was VAST.

There were so many letters and words in this image that, other than the heart, the big letters were one of the last bits to be put together. I enjoyed it much more than anticipated though, and that’s always a bonus in my book.

Does this look like a puzzle you’d enjoy? It’s definitely recommended!

    The first time I was aware of this puzzle was when I saw it on your puzzle board. Yes, this definitely is a puzzle I’d enjoy! What a great collage and bunch of musicians: Little Walter, Louis Armstrong, Muddy Waters, Benny Goodman, Patsy Cline, etc.

    I was too young for Woodstock, but my parents saw CCR, and I’ve seen Fogerty in concert, Crosby, Stills and Nash, and Dylan. -Di

        That’s completely understandable! I guess I was lucky, as the audience was usually very quiet at the concerts I attended, at least while the musicians were performing. They wanted to hear the harmonies of Crosby, Stills and Nash, listen to the words and piano playing of Dylan. Although, I think Fogerty encouraged everyone to sing along with one song. -Di
