This song doesn’t have to be complicated to be great. It’s a vibe. This song has a level of cool that most songs don’t have.
True, look how popular Louie, Louie was. That’s about as simple a song as you can find.
This sound is being produced by only 3 instruments. It led the way to heavy rock.
I agree it doesn’t have to be complicated. What I was trying to say is it didn’t feel special to me
@@poloreacts27 - this is what we called a super group back then in the 60s and 70s. I haven't experienced anything on that level since the 80s. 3 artists. Each individually true masters of their instruments. Ginger Baker in my mind is one of the all time greatest drummers, Jack Bruce's bass has taught and influenced generations of bass players since, and Eric, well - what should I say. Their concerts were more like jam sessions. And because they were individually so creative, Cream was doomed to only exist a relatively short time, The members each evolved in their individual directions. But it was unbeaten while it lasted. They made an impact that mattered.
almost everybody will like this song it's very approachable@@poloreacts27
This song blew everyone's mind when it came out. People weren't used to the heaviness of it... Yes, it's simple but it was like a pivotal moment in the heavy rock genre.
This was precursor to Led ZEP believe it or not w Clapton. Crossroads, Spoonful and others better.
Cream was laying the foundation. Their music was an inspiration to a lot of songs that followed.
Next!
This is THE ICONIC rock song of the 60s. Brilliant.
Black Sabbath!
I'm not sure I agree with that. Of the entire 1960s? No.
Well, at least in the top ten.
@@richardeast3328 yes AT LEAST!
As a metal-head, this song is so soulful and so bluesy, I just assumed everyone likes it.
As a fellow metal head I feel you man! Cream, Black Sabbath, Rolling Stones. To me it doesn’t get more soft rock than that.
Song was ground breaking for it’s time 😮
I’m nearly 63. The ‘60s, ‘70s and into the ‘80s were a spectacularly rich and creative period for music. Even pop music was on another level (esp compared to today).
It was recorded 57 years ago - believe me, it blew minds back then and informed EVERY hard rock band that followed.
Now you're talkin'. I was 17 when this song came out. I was raised with music. Parents, 30's, 40's & 50's. My uncle was 16 when I was born. He introduced us to rock & Roll in the 50's. I've had all types of music in my life.
Wow, you're experience with music was ver similar to mine! We were so lucky.
1951 vintage. Been an amazing ride start to finish loved it. Peace ✌️
Born in 1950. Parents did not listen to much music. Older brother and sister started me on Elvis and early rock and roll and soul. Grew up with Elvis, The Beatles, The Supremes, Sonny and Cher(the fur vest days)Little Anthony and The Imperials, The Jackson’s, Little Richard, Frankie Avalon, Bobby Vinton and many more. My taste in music has always been eclectic. From Jethro Tull to Switched on Bach, Black Sabbath to Santana to Liza Manellii, Streisand and classical. I feel so lucky to live through some of the greatest music ever offered. Love your channel and seeing you enjoying some of the greatest music ever written and performed. It is like hearing it again for the first time.
I understand you reaction. Us older generation liked it because it was so different for the time. It had this hypnotizing effect that was new to many of us. We loved it.
A super group. Jack Bruce, Eric Clapton, and Ginger Baker.
Yes!! Such amazing sound coming from 3 guys!!
Saw them live at the Spectrum in Philadelphia. They knocked my socks off.
Super group?!? I don't think so. Cream was the most overrated group of excellent musicians to ever assemble. But they never did anything even close to putting them in the same league with ELP, YES, Return to Forever, Zappa, Pink Floyd, etc. They did they have a psychedelic 'cool' factor for the times (I was there), I'll give them that. I never wasted my money on their vinyl or eight tracks. As far as rock goes, Led Zeppelin blew this band away hands down.
The first super group
Please don’t forget Felix Pappalardi who wrote, arranged, produced (and played) on Disraeli Gears onward and Pete Brown who wrote the lyrics!
Before you can have Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Queen, etc., you have to have Cream. The "simple" leads to the complex. As was stated earlier, Cream was definitely ground-breaking at the time. Take a listen to more music from this era, and a lot of it *does* sound a bit simplistic today, but, those groups were laying the foundation for all that followed. Loved this reaction, though...you're honesty does you credit!
This was my music. Fun and not that difficult to play on the guitar.
Edit: Cream songs - White Room, Badge, Crossroads, Born Under a Bad Sign, Spoonful, Strange Brew
Deserted Cities of the Heart, SWLABR, Tale of Brave Ulysses, Those Were the Days and of course Toad!
Don’t forget Politician.
I loved all these songs! They are part of the soundtrack of my teens.💕
My folks were of the 40's Big Band Swing era. As a teen I didn't pay attention to that genre, but as an adult I really appreciated it and saw it as a precursor to R & R.
Same here. (Est. 1953) It wasn’t till my 30’s when I married my wife, who is 5 years older, that I started listening to her music more-50’s pop & rock-and she loved her parents music too and turned me on the the great songbook and those artists. Now I have so much to enjoy! - Cream was my intro into 60’s music and listening high!
It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing.
With Cream, it’s always the drums that take the song from really good to exceptional. Ginger Baker was an absolute monster - any drummer of the era will admit to being utterly intimidated by his technique and “swing.”
Remember, Cream was only two guitars and a drummer. Sunshine of your Love is one of the songs that was synonymous with psychedelia. Even if you didn't take drugs, this era of music had a mystical quality which was new to my generation. This was the beginning of Eric Clapton's career; one of the world's greatest guitarist.
One guitar (Clapton), one bass (Bruce), and drums (Baker).
I LOVE this song! This was music from my mom's time. My dad was born in 29, my mom in 46, me in 79. I love all eras and most all music. Like you said, if I like it, I like it. 🤷♀️
Another classic rock band to check out is Steppenwolf. Their song “Born To Be Wild” was in the first of five songs to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame because of its impact on rock. The words “Heavy Metal” originated from that song, although lead singer John Kay wasn’t referring to music. The song was the theme for the film Easy Rider. A good driving song too. There’s other good songs as well, such as “Magic Carpet Ride”.
Don't forget about "Rock Me."
Always amazed me how three Musicians could make such a powerful sound?
Stacked cabinets with 100w Marshall heads
Like rush
I appreciate the honesty of the reaction, that's what we're here for! Cream were known for their extended live jams, all three were amazing musicians. They absolutely knew "complex". But they also knew when to keep it simple. This hard driving riff still gives me goosebumps, after all these decades -and the layers behind it are not as simple as they seem. Also, there's this rich and soaring guitar sound, and the fullness of the sonic space created by just three people back when the production gimmicks were very limited.
It's hard to appreciate early psychedelic rock like this today because we've already heard all the more sophisticated music that evolved from it, like Pink Floyd. But, imagine growing up hearing nothing but Patty Duke, The Everly Brothers, and that style of music, and then this comes at you. It was literally revolutionary; drove adults crazy and absolutely upended social norms.
@littlebearskye1863 Yeah, you're right.
I used Pink Floyd as an example because they were referenced in the video. I probably should have said that it's hard to appreciate early psychedelic music when you've grown up hearing the more sophisticated music that evolved from those early, relatively simple creations.
Those musicians really grew as artists over the years.
whatever you mean by
"more sophisticated" 🙄
you're totally wrong
My mother introduced me to everything swing, the American standards such Sinatra, to Tom Jones, the Beatles, R&B Supremes, temptations, Marvin Gaye,Nillson, Willie Nelson, Kenny Rogers, David Bowie, and through the 80’s. She accepted new music as she grew old and influenced my love of all these types of music. Best gift she gave me.
We always had music in my house and a great variety. I loved my mom's Andtews Sisters and classical music..the Ames Brothers..my dad was partial to Nat King Cole and Johnny Cash lol. I can listen to any of those, and still do once in a while. But I was 17 in 1970. The music of my era is still played every day at my house. Full blast!
My parents listened to the ‘pop’ music of their day - the big bands like Glenn Miller, the singers like Sinatra. Good music, sure. I still remember lots of the words and music. Then, as a 16 year old in 1967, I heard this and went down an entirely different road!!! Their music was like a social event. My music was personal with headphones, listening to the entire album in one sitting while I admired the album cover art and read the liner notes. ☮️❤️
My sisters are 11 and 12 years older than I am. They strongly influenced my musical tastes "back in the day" and I still listen to those classics: The Beattles, Led Zeppelin, anything George Clinton, Parliament Funkadelic, to name a few! Thank you sisters!
My Dad liked country music my mom liked a lot of big bands from the 40's., a little bit of everything else.
This song brought back 8:03 a lit of memories from the 60's.
I'm now 74 and enjoy a little bit of everything.
This album was my first concert I was 12 and my uncle took, that night changed my life. It was mind blowing, all of the people and the atmosphere was crazy.
Parents music planted the seed within me. All I listen to still I'm 57. My dad was a musician and I still love this
I'd always hear this song playing on my mom's car radio on the way to ball practice.... that's how cool she was 😍😍#peace
Great song, this song is from my parents teen years, grew up with Cream, Zeppelin, Hendrix, etc being my foundation, and loved it. I think this era of music made me appreciate classical, jazz, and many music genres.
Hard Rock itself owes its existence to the Blues. The British bands of the early 1960s were hugely influenced by the Blues, Motown, and even Jazz (especially the "Take Five" album by Dave Brubeck Quartet).
Jack Bruce was the greatest bassist in the world. You have chosen my favorite group of all times. Cream was the top dog. At 71 I have listened to just about all genres of music. The sixty artists cannot be beat. Nuff said…….lol…don’t give up on Cream, there is so much more. You have to understand their music, but of course I grew up in the sixties with all the “hippy” bands. It’s the lyrics, the sounds, the poetry in motion, and yes, the reefer….lolololo
Every garage band in America had to learn this song if they wanted to play at the local dances.
I listened to my father's music and still do, and now so are you. Enjoy.
We could feel how special this song was when there wasn't all the stuff that came after it to compare it to. Music was changing drastically and songs like this were at the tip of the spear.
The Cream was one of my favorites back on the 60's. I saw them live in 68 in their first US appearance.
I loved their music. 13 years old going through their vinyl collection and finding Cream, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Queen, Metallica the list goes on.
Yes I loved their music. My dad is the one that got me into jazz. Back in the early sixties hewould listen to the tijuana brass, a sax player named Sil Austin ( you should check out) and Miles Davis,etc… and my mom played albums from Barbra Streisand, musicals suchas West Side Sory and South Pacific. I grew up with alot of diversity and happy I did. I loved listening to it all, and still do. ❤❤❤

I was born '94 and got raised on my fathers music, he used to make prog mixtapes for me when i lived with my mother.. Pink Floyd was my favourite band way before i understood their music, but i was feeling it ❤ Cream N.S.U. Live was the first song to ever make my mind melt and give me goosebumps when they first start getting into it 🤘👹❤
Cream studio stuff is fine, but please believe me, live is where it is really at! Thats what they really were about! :)
ruclips.net/video/sCHE2bxSJqI/видео.htmlsi=-pRe_daIso6rn_fn
That is NSU Live
*mind starts melting at around 1:40 after the intro
Their mantra was "forget the lyrics, forget the message, JUST PLAY" 😅 put volume on max
Have you reacted to Procol Harum (“A Whiter Shade of Pale”) or Emerson, Lake, and Palmer (“Lucky Man”) ? A little change of pace. You might like
My parents listened to old Country music. I listened to Cream, Hendrix, Zep, Skynyrd, Seger. BTW have you reacted to Ike and Tina Turner? If you want, check out Nutbush City Limits or my favorite Proud Mary? They never ever do anything nice and easy.
Someone spray painted Clapton is God all over our high school building!! Lol he was great then and now!!❤️
Born in the late 70's. Mom was into Elvis and such. First song I fell in love with was rockin robin at age 6. By time I'm a teen, I'm into 90's grunge.
At the time, this was a mind-blowing departure from everything we had previously heard on the radio. These guys were musical virtuosos who were the grandfathers of the heavy rock genre.
I was born I 1950. My dad always played big bands (Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman etc.), show tunes, and barbershop quartet as well as classical music. As. A youngster I loved it all. In the early 60’s I discovered rock then blues , folk and world music. The music out of Africa is fantastic. Enjoy good musicianship in any genre . Not a big Polka fan.
I like your channel a lot.
Born same year, my dad loved Lawrence Welk.. i hated it. Mom always had country music playing, dad was always working. I loved the old country Hank, Marty et all... But l loved all the rock n roll on the radio in the 50's 60's.
My Mom took me to see Eric Clapton when I was 17 yrs old. She introduced me to him. I got home from school, and she said her co-worker gave her two tickets because something came up, and they could not go. I changed clothes, and we hauled as$
I grew up with my parent's Big Band music and loved it. As a classically trained vocalist, I have sung opera, rock, folk, pop as well as the old standards. It has always been my dream to sing with big band.
My Dad was a jazz drummer who immigrated to Cda from the UK. I grew up absorbing his music and grew to love Steely Dan because of their jazzy licks as well as groups like Chicago, Earth Wind & Fire and Blood, Sweat & Tears. I still adore Gershwin!
This is a great song. Part of the fabric of my youth
I was born in '67.
My dad had a huge collection of "101 Strings", and various other albums like soundtracks and such.
I loved a ton of those songs, like Paul Mauriat's Love Is Blue, etc.
As the youngest of 8, i was hearing the rock sounds of the 70s and fell in love with music, but was first captivated by The Beatles.
My all-time fave bands are The Beatles, Stones, Zep, The Who, The Guess Who, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Bad Company, Pink Floyd, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and Cream.
I still have Mom's collection of 101 Strings!
(A) loved their music when young, made me appreciate all good music since 🎶
My parents listening to mostly classical music, which I still like and occasionally listen to. I grew up in the 60s & 70s (the era of AM radio) and that is the music that I love most Crosby, Stills & Nash, Joni Mitchel, Led Zeppelin, Heart, The Doors, etc etc. This song from Cream is so familiar, every beat and vibration is embedded in my soul.
6:34 those drums Polo, those drums are insane. The drums are a whole consecutive drum solo throughout the whole song🎉
This song just happens to be in one of the best scenes in Goodfellas the movie. De Niro so intimidating in that scene while this song plays.
D. I listened to their music, loved it, and now that I’m older, I love it so much more than I ever did before.
My parents loved music of all kinds, and my father's parents were friends with Jack Teagarden from the big band era. I was a 70's kid and I loved it all. Every era has its "Cream."
We were blown away by the phenomenal talents back then. It’s why we’re so disappointed in a lot of pop today. ❤❤❤
Bassist Jack Bruce is trading off vocals with Eric Clapton on this one!!!
Cream is my age! Love them.
I grew up listening to my parents “oldies music” 60’s and 70’s. I was born in 67. Then I was listening to my older brother and sisters music they were 7 and 8 years older than me. So I’m a product of 60’s-90’s old southern classic rock, Motown, Latin , disco, so much more and well rounded. Wish you’d do more classic older music. Aretha Franklin, Gladys knight, Diana Ross, temptations, peaches and herb, police, Styx, Wilson Phillips, expose. I could go on and on. Love what you do. So much good authentic pure raw talent out there.
Love this song ! My parents were from the Big Band era so as a child I grew up listening to Glenn Miller, Harry James, etc. I loved Big Band. Don't listen to now but I still like it very much
I liked some of my parents’ music when I was young, but what they regularly played was only a small set of their record collection. As I got older, into my teens, I sampled their LP collection from one end to the other. I found quite a few things I had never heard from them that I really like and those have stuck with me. From James Taylor to Janis Joplin; The Beatles to Black Sabbath. It was a treasure trove of vinyl.
1967 was a cool year. The guitarist is Eric Clapton.
My parents grew up in the depression and were fans of that generation’s music, but they had the am top whatever playing on the radio through my childhood in the 60’s and genuinely seemed to appreciate it.
I am 68 and grew up on big band swing music, the Platters, etc. My Mom always had music in the house and was singing and dancing all the time. I Loved my parents music and they gave me a love for all different genres by appreciating the talent involved. My Mom even bought us our first Beatles album when I was in 2nd grade. We watched them on The Ed Sullivan Show.
Parents music was ok (Sinatra… big band) I do appreciate it as an adult
By the way, Cream was my second concert (First was Hendrix)
My mother was into Santana, Pink Floyd, Janis Joplin, as well as immortals like Nat King Cole. This was early 60s. She was ahead of her time. The albums she owned made a huge impact on me. And she took me to my first concert, Alice Cooper/Billion Dollar Babies Tour, when I was thirteen.
As a kid of 3 or 4, I loved my parents music and still do. It brings back so many memories
I listened to my parents music and loved it, my dad got me into Motown, CCR, Pink Floyd, Beatles, Elvis. He’s a big fan of Supremes, Marvin Gaye, Temptations. I’ve passed that on to my kids, they are 25 and 17. They love Lionel Richie, MJ, Prince, and all the classics like Zep, Floyd, and Motown. My son especially, a young 17 yr old NC country boy, is all about some Motown, and that era, Al Green, Commodores, etc
I grew up with the Beatles, Stones British Invasion, Led Zeppelin. The best time for music in the history of mankind. Will never be another era like it. Including this group.
I enjoyed my parents music, and now find myself gravitating back to it.
My parents listened to country music, Johnny Cash, etc, I at 16, was listening to Cream, David Bowie, Led Zeppelin, etc. Never went to country. I will say that today's 2024 commercial country is like yesterdays rock n roll.
I grew up with parents who sang a lot, mother played the piano, it was church & christmas songs but with dad loved such as anything by Paul Robeson, Earth Kitt & other Soulful singers of his era. I loved some was tolerant of others but Paul Robeson & Earth stayed with me. Both well worth you looking at. Keep the music alive.
I was born in 1952 and wasn't exposed to much music at first. We were too busy playing outside. Some of the singers had their own TV shows, so we got to know their music that way. One of my favorite singers was and still is Jimmy Durante. My dad loved that singer so I got to know about him when I was young.
I remember dancing to this song at my Grade 8 graduation dance & I still love it. I did like some of my parents music, but then I was born when my mother was 39 and my sisters were in their teens - so I really liked the music they listened to as well. (ranging from Tom Jones, Englebert Humperdink, the Everly Brothers, etc). I was 8 when I first heard the Beatles and then music really took off for me.
My mother sang and danced around the house in the 50s ,she loved the Big Band sound. And music from the WW2 era. She was a good tap dancer too, plus she was in the British airforce working on bombers .
My parents provided me a wide range of music. They played musicals from broadway: South Pacific, Oklahoma, Carousel West side Story and many others. My father was a fan of the music of his age like Benny Goodman and George Gershwin and he was very much into the jazz of Dave Brubeck and artists like Nat King Cole and Gene Krupa. I heard this music all the time and it stuck to me. That said I was totally involved with the music of the 60’s Rock, Soul, and even Folk music. Today at 77 I am a product of what my parents showed me and my own tastes but I am very grateful that they exposed me to some of the greatest music of their day.
Born in 60. My mother had the, what, top 20 or 30 going on in the radio on top of the refrigerator. My cottony mind thought all those Motown girl groups were on a stage playing live.
I grew up listening to the big bands, "girl singers", and crooners (Sinatra, Tony Bennett, Rosemary Clooney, Patti Page, etc.) that my parents played. I loved it then and I love it now. My parents always had the radio or record player on so music was always around. We lived in a small town with one radio station and they played Top 40 most of the time through the 60's and early 70's so the whole family listened to whatever was popular. We also watched Ed Sullivan on Sunday nights as a family and he always had a variety of musical and other acts. As we kids grew older, we started to like our own music. One brother was very into rock and I was very into the singer-songwriters (Neil Diamond, Cat Stevens, John Denver, etc.) but we had to keep our records in the family room so anybody can listen to anything. My tastes still are all over the map
My parents had great taste in Music.🎵 Dad loved Latin music and there was lots of dancing.LOUDLY WHENEVER POSSIBLE.😊 They loved all the ROCK hits in the 60's & 70's. Knew the lyrics too. Back then growing up in NYC our Radio Stations were fantastic too. Car radios blasting BANGERS every day. Lucky me❗
64 year old guy with a 24-year-old daughter. Since 1975 , from Aerosmith to ZZ Top, I saw every major rock band most of them more than once. I took her to Paul simon, ELO, Dead & Company, Grateful Dead David Gilmour and more. She had a great time at all of them.
To answer your question, I grew up in the 70s but my dad listened to Johnny Cash and my mom listened to Elvis and you can't go wrong with either of them, but it was always rock&roll for me weather it was 50s 60s or 70s I even got into punk rock, but I always found what was good and can appreciate true talent.
I'm 70 years old now. Growing up, I listened to my parents music (big band 40s stuff) because that was what was in the house. On tv we got what was popular....Sinatra, Andy Williams, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., Tony Bennett etc. But something happened about the time Buddy Holly/ Beatles era that shifted the entire music spectrum. It just kept growing and changing every 3 to 6 months thru the 60s and 70s. The best music ever made happened then. There has been some good stuff made later, 80s 90s and on, but not the paradigm shifting volume and cultural shift that took place from 1960 to 1980.I'm a bit slanted, those were my growing up years, but hundreds of reaction channels agree...that is what they are listening to and falling in love with too. Thanks for the great work on your channel. It's fun to hear the music we love thru fresh ears.
My father was into music more than my mother, in that he collected records, whereas my mom didn’t. His collection was pretty diverse, mostly classical (Beethoven, Mozart, Handel, Bach, etc.), but he also had a LOT of amazing rock albums (Cream, The Beatles, The Beach Boys, Creedence Clearwater Revival), and folk (Kris Kristofferson, Peter, Paul, & Mary, Simon & Garfunkel, Arlo Guthrie, etc.)
I listened to most of his records as a kid religiously and inspired my musical tastes that would grow from there.
I’m 58. I was a very late baby, with 2 older brothers, each of us 5 years apart. My mom and dad were country music fans. Not country western, or new country, but the old superstars of the Grand Ole Opery. By 1970, I was listening to 60s rock with my brothers. By the 80s, I was a true rock fan, of what is now called “ classic rock”. lol, during the 90s, I made a good living bartending in the biggest country music bars in the Atlanta area. I wasn’t a country fan, per se, but I certainly knew all the songs! Classical is a good go to for listening and concentrating at the same time.
I'm 68, and I had a very diverse musical childhood. We lived with my Grandmother, who was partial to pre-WWII Swing Bands, while my Mother was very much more a Post-war Jazz fan. My Father, who was largely absent in my life, was steeped in Country and Bluegrass.
I never really thought much about my personal musical taste until I heard The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and other 'British Invasion' groups. It was then, as a 'tween' that I began developing my musical tastes, and it was all Rock & Roll.
In 1970 I was 15, and the 2nd wave of the British Invasion was in full swing. It was then that I started noticing the Blues and Jazz connections reaching out from my Mom's favorite era, and I started gaining an appreciation for the roots of what I heard on the radio. It was also around that time that Southern Rock was gaining popularity, and again I found those [then] modern songs rooted in my Dad's Classic Country, and Bluegrass tunes.
It took a while for me to realize that I needn't be limited in my listening preferences, but now there are new vistas that I find fascinating.
Yes , I listened to my parents music . I’m 69 years old . My parents played vinyl all the time . I was exposed to early twentieth century music .
My parents listened to gospel, r&b, a little jazz,(my dad), and a little swing,( my dad) again. I listened to their stuff then and now too. This song is from my teen years. This is what my brother and I were into. We wore the granny glasses, bell bottoms, went barefoot sometimes. Hung out on Sunset digging the hippie scene. But overall the radio played everything and we listened to it all
David here....your comment about parental music influences....here we go.....
This touches on one of my standard old guy rants....that popular music has not fundamentally changed in 60-70 years.
My parents are WWII 'greatest generation'/depression era babies. They loved swing music and could jitterbug with the best...well maybe not Savoy Ballroom.
My father was Baja Alabama (Fla. panhandle) born/raised....played guitar....Tenn Ernie Ford voice....revered Hank Sr....performed professionally.
Hearing/playing/loving music permeated my entire family.
I love swing music....I LOVE Jazz....I love Elvis...Jerry Lee...Chuck Berry...I love Beach Boys...Beatles....Stones....Zep....I LOVE 'Retha...JB...Joe Tex...
I love Beethoven....Mozart....Wagner (the racist bastard)....Strauss.....Not opera...well...Der Fledernaus...all that Wagner...JC Superstar...
I love Hank Sr....Willy....Dwight Yoakum...kd lang....NOT 90% of that corporate Nashville swill....
I love Disturbed....AC/DC....I love Sly & Fam....EW&F....Bros Johnson....WAR!!!....I love Joni....Ronstadt...Adele...Amy W....Streisand
I love Home Free...Take six....Bob Wells....Santana....I LOVE A LOT OF DIFFENT STUFF!!!!
My point: The music that was popular for my parents generation was SIGNIFICANTLY different from mine.
But that can't be said for anyone born after the early 80's; unless your family all listened to that Nashville swill.
The music industry has been homogenized by corporate profit motives at the expense of innovative talent.
I did love the music my parents played. My dad was a Woodstock attending hippie from California and my mom was a gospel and country loving lady from Mississippi. We always had music playing in the house and in the car, and I grew to appreciate it more and more as I got older, and try to pass it to my kids too.
My dad what's a professional musician and I loved his music which was big band/swing. I know he found it hard at first to appreciate the music of the late 60s early 70s that I loved, but he always appreciated the musical talent of the artists and kept an open mind. This resulted in me having a wide appreciation for many many kinds of music and I thank him for that.
One of the first songs that created the foundation for the bands that followed. The song is historical in its relevance.
I was born in the 1940's. My mother always had a radio in the kitchen and she listened to torch singers. I still know all the words to things like That Ole Black Magic and Kiss of Fire as well of many of the songs of Patty Page, Rosemary Clooney and Sarah Vaughn and others.... .............................. Of course it sounds familiar....... it's ole slowhand (Clapton) in the early years.
My parents listened to music from the 40’s and 50’s, some of the Beatles songs I remember but I’m a 60’s, 70’s and beyond hard rock etc, grunge, metal, classic my kids listen to stuff I listened to and love it! Lol
I listened to some of my parents music. Much of it reflected a world that was very different to mine. I grew up in the 1959’s and 60’s. I am black but I grew up listening to British Rock, American Rock and Motown. I was the odd man out often. But I grew up listening to so many kinds of music, including Lawrence Welk and Coltrane. We were eclectic.
Hello from Cody Wyoming 😊you're awesome... I grew up on a jukebox in a bar my parents owned. It became the blueprint of my life. 70's rocked and has stood the test of time
My parents loved great music, cream, the Beatles, the doors, the stones. I was and still am a metal head, then came to realize how good those songs are. It took until my early 20’s to appreciate it.
My parents were almost 40 when they adopted me as a baby in 1955 so their music choices were mostly 1940’s and 50’s. I liked some of the songs. They liked country western They did not listen to rock music but they liked Elvis’ slow songs. Since I grew up with that kind of music I was used to it. I liked Frank Sinatra with them etc. I really liked Buddy Rich though. He was an awesome drummer so when he came on the TV my parents would call me into the living room to watch it. When I was 8 the Beatles came on the Ed Sullivan show and that changed my whole outlook on music 🎵. I loved singing and was already in choir. So really my music tastes was varied. I listened and sang to what was available and when the Beatles music came out that’s all I would listen to. And of course the whole British Invasion started I had so much music in my life. Fast forward to getting married and having kids. They just listened to whatever we had in the house which was a lot of 60’s and 70’s. We listened to 80’s and 90’s as they were growing up too. So they had a well rounded music education. I always paid attention to their music and I’ve liked a lot of it myself. At 68 now I listen to hard rock and metal. I just always evolved with the music and I still love drums.
WOOOHOOO!!! :) LOVE this TUNE!! CANNOT BEAT this AWESOME TRIPLE-THREAT!!!
I have always loved music and the music I loved most was from my time. Loved the 30-50's my mother loved and she loved some of mine from the 70's. And my kids (now adults) love music from my era and my grands love it, too. Took then to see the Minion movie, laced with 60-70's tunes and they asked me how I already knew the words to the songs in the movie! LOL!
CREAM the first Super Group. But YES, my parents were teenagers of the 50s. I was bought up on early Rock and Roll. By the time I was three in 1955 I was singing alone with the radio and record player. I still love the 50s music, I have an awesome 50s play list on Spotify.
I had very young parents I grew up on Top 40 and Mowtown, Early Zeppelin, Credence, Doors, Beatles, Chicago etc. By'75 I was 10yrs. old and starting guitar and just started gravitating to anything edgy! Queen , Kiss, Styx, Kansas, REO, Robin Trower, Van Halen and every thing that followed in the 80's and 90's. I feel like I was born at the right time( '65) to enjoy great rock music though my youth and beyond. When The Black Crowes came out in the early 90's that took me right back to the early 70's again:)
0:28 yes we loved our parents music and still listen to it. I was born in 82 and I love 90’s tunes but the 70’s was just Top notch undeniably the best era of music
My parent's music was Big Band, and I did get into it in my young teens. And I do indeed listen to it today.
I was in my late teens in the 70's rocking music era...My daughter loves music from then and it seems that music is staying the test of time...Thanks to you reactors
