[QUOTE="Tracer, post: 111162, member: 5742"] Music! Ummmmmmmmm very interesting subject these days. I wasn't going to respond to this thread, being a rock & roll muscian from back in the 60's. I didn't want someone thinking I was just one of those Elvis, Ricky Nelson or Everly Brothers fans. I liked a lot of MO-Town (Temptations and Four Tops) and thought Tom Jones, who was from Whales was top shelf as a singer. I even liked some of the things the "Greatful Dead" put out over the airways. My mother taught my sisters and I to dance the Jitter Bug! I never missed a step on the dance floor to Tuxedo Junction. Actually, I was raised on the Big Band sounds of Glen Miller, Arty Shaw, Count Basey, Duke Ellington and the Dorsey Brothers. I idolized the likes of Gene Kupa and Buddy Rich. Ringo Star still SUCKS in my book as a drummer!!!.........My father played Country & Western Music as well as singing a good tune. So I'll put in a plug for Hank Williams and his Hot Rod Ford going over the hill. I will say, that I have many after thoughts of what young people are listening to these days. I forbid to listen to Rap music and most of the so called Hip Hop sounds. I don't like the loud Heavy Metal either. I liked to listen to a lot a lot of Country (Country & Western actually) Music from Johnny Cash, George Jones, Jim Stafford, Eddy Arnold, Roy Acup and Sons Of The Pioneers. Ghost Riders In The Sky!
