What music did your parent(s) listen to? Just a curio

[Facetious]

When you were growing up, that is...
Rockers, Classical, Jazz... what? :dunno:

 

[squallumz]

stupid shit. my dad has much better taste though.

in general..


at least he's aware the ****ees had stuff before disco that wasnt awful. if you ask me, they were way better when they were doing folk or whatever.

 

[TheSpokenWheel]

Growing up, I pretty much heard The Grateful Dead and James Taylor.

james taylor for me also.

a few years ago, i finally saw what he looked like. and damn! what a shocker. i had a totally different image of that guy in my head.

 

[TheSpokenWheel]

did you see an old picture or was it current?

 

[squallumz]

[Death-Proof-69]

thats pretty much how he looks now, I think. probably more bald than balding.


I think the better question is what kind of music are you going to raise your kids on?

who, me?

 

[STDiva]

My mom listened to country.

I wouldn't raise my kids on any type of music in particular. I'd just teach them how to play different instruments and they'd develop their own appreciation from there.

 

[TheSpokenWheel]

who, me?

the people of this thread in general, you being amongst them.

 

[Facetious]

The Eagles, James Taylor, Dick Haymes, Henry Mancini and ol' ''Blue eyes'' (Sinatra ... who else)

AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, SRV, ZZ Top, Jimi Hendrix etc...

Your parents were relatively young when they had you, huh?

 

[squallumz]

i imagine they'll just hear what me and my girl play if we ever do have kids. god knows shes bugging the shit out of me for a baby..

i intend to guide them into playing music just my me and my girl do. mostly me these days. and hopefully that will help them find appreciation which is all you can ask for. hopefully they dig playing music, if not, whatev. im not forcing them into anything.

as for whats normally in the car cd player, right now there's a couple nin cds, some cure, and some 80s era punk. i dont see myself ever growing out of that stuff. though i supposed i might have to skip a couple of songs when they're little.

reptile isnt exactly appropriate for the kiddies. nor is eminem which i play from time to time. i do miss old eminem..

My Mom: Beach Boys; Johnny Cash....all the good Rock-N-Roll from the 50s and 60s ....now she likes everything from Pink Floyd to Guns N Roses.

My Dad: Whatever music was playing in whatever bar he was in at the time.

Being from the South I can understand how your pops listened to country music, but STD's mum, c'mon, they're Canadians! What kind of country music influence is there up in Canada? I don't get it :dunno:

:1orglaugh

Styx

"Lady... when I'm with you ..."

Peter Frampton

"Do you, you, feel...''

Bay City Rollers

I'm sooo drawing a blank on this one. :o

 

[TheSpokenWheel]

I'm going to raise my children on a steady diet of Mercyful Fate, Sleep and Mastodon.

 

[squallumz]
