Musical Collection… part 27

I’m amazed that this is a totally live production. There was a real orchestra & everything. No backtracks or any digital “helps”. I have to laugh at this production, though. So much difference in 1950s culture!!

“Keep on failing. It works”

James Dyson, inventor of the revolutionary vacuum cleaner, talks on how failures are an integral part of the inventing process.

Sounds akin to Thomas Edison’s philosophy:

“I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”
