I've been thinking a lot about my family lately. My aunt Martha, my "Nan", is never far from my thoughts. At a time when I was young and would get in trouble for getting into my Dad's records, she embraced me getting into her records and playing them. My father's always been encouraging, too. However, she really loved it when my brother and I played her records and danced, and sang. My family, on whole, was always encouraging with our up-bringing around music. I was fortunate in that way. My brother is 7 years older than me. Therefore, he turned me on to Kiss, The Ramones, R.E.M., Soundgarden, etc... I've been waxing "philosophical" about these things lately. Ha! I hope it shines through on this episode! I had a ball doing this one. I had the volume LOUD! Dig it! Chuck Berry, The Replacements, Loudon Wainwright III, Iron and Wine/Calexico, and even the voice of Albert Camus reading from one of his masterpieces. Lucky you! See ya deep in #17! Leave comments!
