No CD players,no Casette players.Lucky that we can still get FM radios.

In the 70s if you liked classic rock it was FM.  Near the Akron/Cleveland area at least music was AM music or FM music.  Most favorite station was WMMS, Home of the Buzzard.

He and Dylan both had a few good days when they could actually sing.

When Neil Young recorded with Crosby,Stills and Nash he blended in with them very well.

I saw Bob Dylan in his first NY concert in April 1961 .He was great that night.I have possibly all his albums that he released in the 60’s and he was very good.I compare him to Mark Knoepler of Dire Straits.

Micheline born in 1967, me in 1961.  Definitely something about younger women.

That seems to be a common practice for those in show business.

In the 70’s when I lived in NYC there were many Classic Rock stations .Currently there is only one 104.3 FM and one where I live now 102.3 FM.They are the only FM stations I listen to.You are never too old for classic rock.Ringo is 81,Jagger is 78,McCartney 79 just to name a few.

At Cleveland Stadium they would hold the World Series of Rock.  Each event would have several bands show up to play all day and into the night.  One of my favorites had Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young as the main attraction .  One of the “back up bands” was Santana.  It was a great day.

I prefer satellite radio now and mostly listen to either Classic Rewind or Classic Vinyl.

 

Didn't we already discuss satellite radio here?  Am I repeating myself?  I'm in that gray area right now where I'm old enough to tell the same stories to the same people, but not quite old enough to forget that I'm doing so.

We can discuss it again if you want. This thread takes some crazy turns. Who would have thought we would get to the TSOTD and the demise of car CD players.

TSOD (T-Shirt Of the Day) - Mind the Gap, from London.    A gift from my daughter and one of my favorites even though I has shrunk a bit (really).

I got everyone in our family mind the gap tshirts when we were in london 2018.

St Maarten for me today🥰

Just a few of the songs they have performed so far at tonight’s concert.  This group has a wide range.  
 

We are Family - Sister Sledge

 

Let’s get it on -Marvin Gaye

 

Under the Boardwalk - Drifters

 

At last - Etta James

 

In the still of the night - The Five Satins

 

Wonderful tonight - Eric Clapton

 

September - Earth, Wind and Fire

 

Proud Mary - Tina Turner

 

These would all probably be considered oldies.

Do you remember your first vinyl ?

As a child I had several 78s and 35s (is that right)  as a teenager my first was either led zeppelin or the doors.

My wife 1961

1956 for me too.

It’s nice to have a young lady to share life and to keep us in line.

I was born 6.21.66 and Eric was born 3.31.59
