I really enjoyed the 'old' country music with The Grand Ole Opry, The Lousianna Hayride,<br />Ozark Jubilee, etc.. Also the Dixieland sounds from Louzanna, the Swing-era<br />MUSIC, Doo-Wop, Southern Gospel quartets, the classical symphonies, Cowboy Western songs; in other words, MUSIC!!!butterbean carpenternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3612782136487369362.post-9321382773425389732012-06-16T04:38:31.419-05:002012-06-16T04:38:31.419-05:00Mike, you hit that famous nail on its big square h...Mike, you hit that famous nail on its big square head.

It's pretty subjective stuff and when you get over 100 million people voting on American Idol that's pretty impressive even if you weren't one of them.<br /><br />I'm one of those who happened to be a big fan of Phillip Phillips and think he is going to have a lot of success.Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16523089898331291694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3612782136487369362.post-55827110747238353732012-06-15T17:12:30.566-05:002012-06-15T17:12:30.566-05:00Couldn't agree with you more on this one Mike....Couldn't agree with you more on this one Mike. It is truly a sad state of affairs what has happened to the music industry. Nothing to do with our age & everything to do with the way morals & standards have slipped so badly in our society. I think people our age are extremely fortunate to have lived through the Golden Age of Music which I believe began with the the big band era back in the 40's. There was still some great music coming out of the 80's but by the 90's it was obvious the Golden Era was coming to an end. How sad that we now have to be subjected to, & insulted by, the wretched noise that is now such a pathetic excuse for something we so wonderfully once called...... music.Al Bossencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04307619781955351484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3612782136487369362.post-35197868076406373322012-06-11T11:52:59.299-05:002012-06-11T11:52:59.299-05:00There are a few good tunes out nowadays, but they ...There are a few good tunes out nowadays, but they are few and far between. Thank goodness for Pandora radio where I can get the tunes I want. Love things 60s or earlier. Have to agree with you about the mindless, tuneless noise that passes for modern music. Dare I say, even some church music is in the same category as far as I'm concerned.Donna Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06161069942110860372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3612782136487369362.post-43963796943299969702012-06-10T19:26:37.070-05:002012-06-10T19:26:37.070-05:00Your last post on becoming a Geezer stimulated a p...Your last post on becoming a Geezer stimulated a post on my blog about the impending signs of Geezerism.

I don't think it's an age thing. I think it's a choice thing. You know what you like...and what you don't. Me?

I happen to like old hip hop and R & B as well and anything with a funky beat. He loves 50's and 60's and the old style country. Needless to say, I listen to my music with headphones. :-)Jeannie and Eldyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04664198861231288915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3612782136487369362.post-46097532340688635322012-06-10T08:18:59.922-05:002012-06-10T08:18:59.922-05:00This is one of the main reasons we have Sirius Rad...This is one of the main reasons we have Sirius Radio in the truck.
