So what are some of your favorite songs? Some of your favorite genres?
I like doo wop, songs like Earth Angel by the Penguins, In The Still of the Night by the Five Satins, Gee by the Crows. Also disco, I admit it, it was the most fun dance music ever, I guess my fave from that era would have been You Make Me Feel by Sylvester, I liked a lot of protest songs, The Times They Are A Changin', so many more by Bob Dylan, for surf music Feel Flows by the Beach Boys kind of captures the '70's surf mentality, Pride of Man by Quicksilver the peak of the '60's acid rock era, I liked so much Presley, Hunk of Burning Love for example, dozens of Beatles songs--The Night Before, Tell Me Why, Its All Too Much, so many more.
I went to a college Christmas party the other night, the DJ was playing songs like Johnny B. Goode, it cracked me up to see these bespectacled bald headed successful businesspeople rocking out like 17 yearolds.
Oh and a few years ago I was at a party at a house near San Diego State, owned by a gym coach & wife, nearing retirement. For music they had a band that had played together as kids 30 + years before in Mission Beach, and they were making a lot of noise. In wade the SD Police, just a typical rowdy college party call, they figure, and then they recognize some of the people in the band..."Would you mind turning down the gain, your honor."
