[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you had "cool" parents, you knew about cool 60s and 70s music too.  While my mom listened to Joan Baez and other folk music, my dad had a ton of cool old records like Cream, Led Zeppelin, Velvet Underground, The Rolling Stones, even some early Bowie.  And Pet Sounds by the Beach Boys. I loved going through his record collection and of course we had a huge cabinet stereo.  We also knew a ton about disco and somehow had a ton of disco 8 tracks.

+1 . I'm a gen x who grew up on Fleetwood Mac, the Eagles, Beach Boys, Jim Croce, all the classic rock; my parents were older and so also liked older music like Buddy Holly (dad, the rock and roller) and the  Four Tops (Mom, from Detroit).

And we listen to all that stuff today with our 4 year old, plus all the alternative rock and new wave and punk we were into in the 1980s and 1990s. It's the music that will be constant throughout his life, just like I still have CCR on my playlists along side The White Stripes or whatever.[/quote]
