the heck with the cd's johnny didn't leave the tonight show until the
early to mid 90's
my son was born in 84 and we listened to dire straits the first fully
digital recorded cd while we brought him home.i still like the story
of the teenager who while looking thru a misic store found a beatles
cd and told his brother "look mccartney was in a band beore wings" .
my son is 23 and listens to all the alleged music these days but still
knows hendrix is the top dog and is positive clapton is god..he takes
me to buddy guy shows whenever he's at the house of blues here in
vegas- so there is some hope. i'll turn on my petsounds cd and -- ah
who am i kidding it's five after 8 in the evening --time for bed...
