PM,
I grew up in "the day". I pretty much Survived it. Honestly, there is very little that I would change...certainly would I not wish to have missed the experience of the Birth of the kind of music most everyone on this Forum anyway LOVES!
I worked my way through Transistor Radios, through Record Players, through 45 and 33-1/3 platters, through Component Stereos, through Reel to Reel tape recorders, 8-tracks, cassettes, CDs, VHS and DVDs, through the birth of Midi on computers on into the MP3 music formats and into the MP3 players...yes, the mini-disc recorder/players too.
There was none of it I didn't like. Well, saying I liked 8-track is stretching it a little <LOL>
But as some of you know, experiencing "first hand" what many will only be able to witness as "history" is something that I'll always cherish. Somehow, I really believe that the 70's and late 60's will be remembered just like the Roaring 20's are remembered today. It's been a special time.
