My kids've been on a Beatles kick lately. I felt it was time to straighten 'em out.

I led (pun intended) a sheltered life as a kid and while the 10-year-old me was grooving to the Kingston Trio, the Brothers Four and that crazy Neil Diamond, I apparently was missing out on a whole new world. My cousin from Chicago turned me on to that same Led Zeppelin album. Probably why I never amounted to much ... :rolleyes:

My daddy had been a country musician in the 50s, so I was raised on a steady diet of honky-tonk and hee-haw until, via the wonder of FM radio, I discovered Zeppelin and Sabbath and all that other good stuff in the 70s, then in middle school a friend hipped me to the Clash and the Sex Pistols and it was on.

Tonight I'm enjoying some of these guys.

They've been in the CD player pretty steady since I picked it up a few weeks ago.

Nice, Dale. Think they ever heard any of this. I hear a little influence.

More than a little, I think.
I love the Bo Diddley, and count myself as fortunate that I had the opportunity to hear him play live once, back in the 80s. He had a full tank that night and played "Who Do You Love" about four times during the set, and the words were different each time.
