Hi D

You and me both.  If you learned from the bad times then they were worth it as far as I'm concerned.  Life lessons.....hard....but necessary.

Very well put there J.

I feel extrememly fortunate to have been a part of the times that I was born into and regardless of the bad or good times, I would not change that for anything!

Hi D

I'm sure it wouldn't go over as well in today's world but one thing I can say about the time period we grew up in is that we loved several different types of music.  My 45 rpm record collection had everything from The Beatles to Patti Page to Vic Damone and Steve & Eydie to Grateful Dead and The Village Stompers and The New Vaudeville Band with "Winchester Cathedral".  It was definitely a different time but a great one.

Hi J

Yes I remember that song as well..  that was surely a different time as if something like that came out today I am not sure the reception it would get.

Also, as Lizzy pointed out, loved The Tennessee Waltz.

Thanks Tony.  I know there are other CD's out there but I'm not spending the money on any others.  Many of the songs on the CD you show are not even her songs and the ones that are I have on my CD except for Hush, Hush Sweet Charlotte which I could download if I really want to.

Hi Diana,

I agree.  I just copied that the way it was written on the site I use but at least it was listed as one of her music genres though I would go more with blues/blues-rock myself.  Sometimes they list people as rockers and I do change it to just singer because they aren't what I'd call a rocker.  Though Bon Jovi did go a little country on the last album they aren't and never will be a country band.  Thank God!!!!
