What did your parents & granparents play whilst you were growing up?

My mum liked 'Patsy Cline' my grandma liked Sydney Divine.

Here's Crazy by Patsy.

I cant actually find anything by Sidney, maybe somebody could help me out? My grandma loved the song 'i'll be a legend in my time' Awwww R.I.P Grandma :-4

My mom and dad had a lot of Elvis, Del Vikings and other 1950s do-wop stuff and I grew to love that. Later on they had Charlie Rich, Roy Clark, John Denver, Carpenters, Helen Reddy, basic 70s stuff. The later still, more country like Reba McEntire.

My grandmothers liked Charlie Pride, Charlie Rich, country gospel and stuff like Perry Como.

Growing up with would include junior high (Blondie and other junk) and then high school was Journey, Quiet Riot, Twisted Sister, Black Sabbath and Bruce Springsteen who was my saving grace at the time. I wore out Nebraska and Asbury Park.

My aunt was an influence, she let me play her collection of Glenn Miller and Bing Crosby records. The nearest my parents ever got to music were the South Pacific and My Fair Lady soundtracks, they were hopeless. None of my grandparents ever owned anything that played recordings but my grandmother had a piano and introduced me to music - the Teddy Bears' Picnic and people like Albert Ketèlbey and George Washington Johnson. The world, as they say, has moved on.
