--- Quote from: 24_hour_revenge_therapy ---to be honest, i think that's why i hate them.  my mom and dad made me listen to them, CONSTANTLY.  very few bands they listened to i like now, mainly because of that.
--- End quote ---


See, some music my parents listened to I didn't care for. There was some that I didn't appreciate until later in life. The Beach Boys are a prime example of the latter: they're my dad's favourite group of all time, I heard them every day, and I couldn't stand it. Later in life, I was able to give them an objective listen and saw the brilliance that was just below the surface.

By the time I was 19 I was way more into classic rock (and other music) than my dad. He may have introduced me to groups like CCR and the Steve Miller Band, but I had all their albums and knew songs he had never heard of. Shubada du ma ma ma ma, yeah. Of my 600+ CD collection, I'd wager that half of those CDs are classic rock. I grew up in the 90s, and sure I lurves my Pearl Jam, but give me Jethro Tull any day of the week.

I'll stop now before going off on too much of a tangent. Suffice it to say, there's a reason I chose that particular Zappa quote for my sig. ;)

Smiley:
I'm a huge fan of rock like CCR, Springsteen, and Seger. Almost as much as I am of all country (Yes, I do love all forms of country, ranging from folk all the way to "Nashtrash"). I can't say why I enjoy CCR so much, it just hits me in the soul, ye know?

24_hour_revenge_therapy:
nothing wrong with a little country.  johnny cash, willie nelson, and waylon jennings are some of my favorite artists.  not so sure how i feel about "nashtrash".  what IS that?  

an peasant, that's one of my favorite quotes.  zappa always had a flair for the words.

and to keep this on topic, i still hate CCR.

Smiley:
it IS my topic ;-) (j/k)

I see your "i hate CCR" and raise you an "all your base are belong to CCR"

Btw, Nashtrash or whatever country elitists refer to it as is the kind of country produced out of nashville, the kind of country you hear on most stations now days.
