As I am lying awake in my bed I am listening to the Beatles. Yes, I am old but I also listen to a wise genre of music. From old rock and role, country, southern rock, Michael Buble, contemporary Christian to old standards, Christian Rock, and the list goes on.
It’s this traditional rock role music that I grew up with and beach music. This was music that you could sink your teeth into. The Beatles, Temptations, The Supremes, The Rolling Stones and of course Elvis were in my stack of 45’s.
My father referred to me as his “flower child” because I came up in the era of hippies, acid and rock. While I loved the music and the fashion of those days the drugs and free lifestyle did not fit me. I guess you could say I am a spiritual soul without the bad trips.
Music has always been a significant part of my life. At the age of six I took piano lessons but it just didn’t seem to stick then. At thirteen I took guitars lessons and found my instrument of choice. While I have played in places like Nashville I chose not to play professionally.
Since those days music has changed so much. The soothing sounds of the 60’s and 70’s moved over to make room for R&B, Rap and Heavy Metal. I enjoy some R&B but you will never find Rap and Heavy Metal in my music library.
Now there is Techno which is kind of like fingernails on a chalkboard! The only electronic music I listen to is the new frequency music for healing.
I’ve had a long journey with music with no regrets.
Take a moment and add a little music to your day.
