Generational Music

As I was growing up, my household was firmly rooted in classical music, Broadway music and old Irish tunes. When my sister and I wanted to listen to "our" music, we were pretty much told that we couldn't listen as long as parents were around who might hear it also. Yes, this was BEFORE the days of the walkman, the MP3 player, and personal listening devices of any kind. I grew up really out of the loop, so to speak, of modern music evolution. Basically, I was behind the times, and my kids would probably say that hasn't changed! So I tried to make sure I didn't put a damper on THEIR listening. I guess that is what drives my music. It's a real mix - some country ("garbage"), soft rock ("filth"), gospel, tributes, novelty, show tune type, choir music, lots of harmonies, odd chords and things that defy classification. I like it all, and there is something for most everyone. If you click on my "links" tab, it will take you to not only my own cds and videos, but also those of my son, Seth, who does more hard rock, alternative, soft rock, and so on. He also cut his teeth on classical, peppered with Pearl Jam and Pink Floyd. Out of it all, those links will really provide something for everyone. Check them out, and just enjoy.
