music you grew up with

[JettaKnight]

This thread implies that there was a time in my life where music was great and it's frozen in the past - a premise I find entirely false. Sure, I listened to a lot of stuff in my teens, twenties and thirties. But, what was good then was then. I'll always keep listened to new music and never fall into this trap.

Also, it's important to have the right music at the right time - I was getting road weary driving the length of Nebraska in my pickup - some Jerry Reed turned a boring trip into the surreal.

That goes without saying... rap ain't music, it's bad poetry with sound effects.

Rap sucks....period. It aint music.

John Fogerty......and CCR....



But Fogerty pretty much was CCR.

Lighten up! This thread doesn't imply anything. It's "music you grew up with". That doesn't mean that other music isn't good. If you want to start a thread about other great music, start it and I'd be happy to contribute to it. I enjoy a lot more music than the 70's classic rock that I grew up with.

I've redefined my life so many times I don't relate to my own history. Yeah, I just said that and it may be my favorite quote.

That being said, a LOT of songs in this thread are what I would call ERA defining songs of my life. Great thread! Thanks for the memory lane that comes with MANY of these songs.

There's some good ones up there I enjoyed. I never had a taste for Zepplin though...they just grate my nerves. Here's a couple that are a little different:

And I grew up, in the south, around country music too. I really like some of the old stuff like this:

I grew up in the late sixties, seventies and I suppose the 80's as well. Never cared for PoP Music. I prefer what is now called "Classic Rock" like Led Zepplin, the Who, Yes and others like this plus I do like some of the older punk groups like the Dead Kennedy's, Black Flag, Ramones and the Clash. These days I would say I still don't like PoP Music. I still like classic rock and near all music save the following genres:
Rap
Hip Hop
The current batch of Country, love old country like Johnny Cash and such.
Opera
and finally DISCO! I hate disco music. I was there at the Disco Destruction Day that WLS had at old Comiskey Park too.
