Nothing fancy. Just some of my favorite sounds. Some have been appropriated from public sources, others are original. I would rate these wavs as “G”. Many of the files are in mpeg-3 compression, so if they don’t play, you will need to obtain an MP3 player such as Winamp. Also, for your dancing and dining pleasure, there are links to the other sites in this domain. Enjoy!
