Isn't that Dillon? Nice drawing Swamp.

I grew up listening to my mom's records. I laugh now when I placed third singing, "Kay Sera Sera" by Doris Day on my mother's buisness/family picnic event back in '69 at the age of nine. Went up to the mic and sang it cold turkey. No background music and all by heart. http://ww3.powerlineman.com/lforum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif My mom's group won first place singing, "Daddy Sang Bass" by Johnny Cash. Since there were over 300 people there, to this day it seemed pretty surreal to a young girl. Especially one that would sing in front of such a large group. Anyone remember Gold Kist? That's where my mom worked as a personnel secretary. Forgot about that memory. I remember my brothers and my father thinking it cool that Mom and I brought home winning prices. http://ww3.powerlineman.com/lforum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif Not too many times were my brothers ever in awe of me. Heh.

I grew up listening as the music changed. Every generation listened to the changing of the music world. I guess we still do. There was music that my parents didn't like me listening to. My kids grew up listening to my music and there were some of theirs I didn't like. But, there are my music that they like. And the groups are still around! http://ww3.powerlineman.com/lforum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

What would we do without music? I hope there is never a day the music dies.

For me it was Loggins and Messina, Billy Joel, James Taylor, John Denver, Waylon Jennings, Emmy Lou Harris, Grand Funk, Bread. Jim Reeves, Marty Robbins. I was all over the place in music. Still am today.

Amazing piece of art Swamp! Im damn jealous.


I enjoy the classics I grew up listening to. Tommy James & the Shondel's, the Beach Boys, Zepplin, to the Grateful Dead, Janice, Moody Blues, etc.


Its not that I don't enjoy the classics but now I like some of the unheard of, blues and bluegrass musicians. Ben Harper, Ryan Adams, Amos Lee, Moe, to name a few. But like Duck mentioned, my taste is vast just depending on my mood I suppose.

You forgot Robert Johnson and I feel young Jonny Lang will be enjoyed by a few future generations.
