Nudder Music Thread: 67-72 Music

[special-K]

Well, no one heard WHFS unless they lived near Washington, DC. But musicians all over got to know who they were for giving their music airtime. It was no fixed format and not controlled by their advertisers or the record companies.

I was lucky to have two pretty older sisters who always dated music people. I came up with the '60s garage band sound. Plus my parents were into not so typical music. I think Folk was the most popular style, which led to the folk rock. My dad grew up loving the delta blues, ragtime, and bluegrass. My mom liked global folk, acoustic jazz (Charlie Byrd, Sandy Bull), and bossa nova. My dad taught HS and got a folk club going that met out at our farm. So Saturdays it became the hangout. My dad and the woodshop teacher had students in the shop evenings making guitars.

I grew up with this version of Black Betty. These three guys really nailed the sound of early rags, blues, and hollers

Led Zeppelin's Stairway To Heaven was every other couple's wedding song when I was growing up. "Oh, that was our song...sigh" . I always found 'Thank You" to be the most romantic song they ever did
