My Opa and his brother:

My daughters boyfriend used to date Eric Brittingham's daughter. He had no idea who the dad was or about the band and was surprised I knew who they were. Once he heard a few songs he realized that he did know the music but was clueless about who the artist was. Kids these days. :rollno: Haha



My truck allows me to program 18 channels on satellite radio. Station 1 - Underground Garage 2 = Ozzy's Boneyard 3 = Hair Nation 4 = First Wave 5 = Lithium 6 = Howard Stern. Stern gets the least amount of my time despite listening religiously in the 90's.
you stole my sirius programming! Actually, I didn't bother with stern; I liked him in the 90s but not since. And I have the 70s and 80s channels.
 
My son had the former's Metallica album. We loved it. Thanks.
And Vee. Be warned. Oz is on my bucket list. We will meet.
Or some of this guy’s stuff. He’s all over the map, genre wise. Some call him The Godfather of Celtic Rock. A History Prof at U of Edinburgh turned me on to him circa ‘77.

And Vee. Be warned. OZ is on my bucket list. We will meet. Retirement should be in 2025, if I last that long. I’ll even wear a proper hat. Getting one this summer.
 
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I’ve had a crush on her since I was like 10. I don’t have one single favorite. Too many. Natalie. Jenny Lewis. Judy Collins. Joni Mitchell. Alanis. Mavis. Sheryl. Stevie. I could type all night. How about Ronnie:

I have a fascination with Sheryl Crow. Great voice, great songs, and a bass player.
 
Man, the 60s singing groups were something else and it don't hurt one bit that a sensible share of them had the man, James Jamerson, as their (studio) bass player. My folks had a few 33s of the Platters, Temptations and compilation of Motown stuff and I still have a lot of this music on the iPhone.

Totally unrelated music, turning towards lady artists... my daughter turned me on Christina Perri a few years ago and I must confess having a mild fascination with Jar of hearts. Haunting piece of music.





and also Natalie Merchant, although I can't say I'm familiar with her work, save for this gem.

She's lucky she isn't my daughter! I'd tell that boy to march back over there and patch things up with that girl! :roflmao:
"Get in the truck, I'll drive!" :laugh:

I would be willing to help drive him there. :laugh::roflmao::laugh::roflmao:

I feel like Stern is still doing a lot of the same material from back then so I rarely listen. I probably have the 70s and 80s programmed as well but keeping track of 18 stations isn't easy for me. I know I have a Tom Petty station, outlaw country/Americana, and Comedy central but everything else is a surprise when I land on it.

It's rare I can't find something I like outta the first band (of 3), so I don't go searching.
