Yup, music has changed over the years.

But we had some great ones.

Maybe you'll play along and post some of those that you liked.

Me? I like the old British invasion bands. The Stones, Led Zep, the Kinks, the Who, and of course the Beatles.

I really enjoyed playing the old time rock and roll when I was on the air. Now when I'm driving my car will sound like 1963.

[Ole Joe Clark]

Late 40's and 50's Hillbilly music. Flatt & Scruggs etc., and Southern Gospel

I wore the grooves off this trying to figure it out:

Alright, enough of that psilocybin user music.

[Ole Joe Clark]

Oh, yes I have always been a Chet Atkins fan. Lately I listen to Joe Pass and Tommy Emmanuel a lot.

Have a blessed day,

A Bob Dylan song

The brothers really brought this one all the way home.

[ladder13]

Saw the O'Jays last Nov @DPAC in Durham, they were great even recently. The place was rockin' with bunch of old, and young, folks shaking and baking in the aisles.
Levert still has it for now.
The opening group was the Dramatics. I hope they come back in 2019.

They closed with Money, the place exploded.

 

[Rustyt1953]

Another one that stoked the fire:

[joeintexas]

Anything by CCR, Sam Cooke, any of the early 60s groups, Supremes, Crystals, Ronettes. In country music, Ol Possum, George Jones is tough to beat. Man I sure wish I had that '55 Chevy back.

 

[Rustyt1953]

Alright, enough of that psilocybin user music.

Inspiration comes in many forms.
