blacklabjumper 0 #36 December 23, 2009 Neil Young's "Heart of Gold". The summer bewteen my junior and senior year in high school. This song was playing on my stereo when I called to ask a girl out who had two older brothers and one of them had the nickname whacko. My brain was telling me this was a bad idea but I really liked her. We ended up dating for 5 years and she became my first true love. Not that high school puppy love bullshit. But alas by the end of college we had different ideas about the direction of our lives. She wanted to get married have kids and live in the same town we grew up in. I wanted to travel, see the world, my thought was to grab life by the throat and choke the ever loving shit out it. In the end we both got what we wanted. She is married had 2 kids, lives one block from her parent's house. I got to do all the things I wanted to do so in the end it is all good. But everytime I hear that song I can't help but smile.Rodriguez Brother #1626 Dudiest Skydiver #1962 DPH #-2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MikeJD 0 #38 December 23, 2009 I remember a lot of late Beatles stuff on the radio, but whether or not that was contemporary I couldn't really say. Quite possible since I'm a child of the 60s. Also, my mum's limited record collection means that these always take me straight back: California Dreamin' The Last Thing On My Mind The Times They Are a-Changin' Turn! Turn! Turn! Unfortunately she was a fan of The Seekers, and I had no idea as a young kid that these were other people's songs. When I finally got exposed to The Mamas and the Papas, and Tom Paxton, and Dylan, and The Byrds, I thought their versions were ok but not a patch on the 'originals'!

masterrig 1 #39 December 23, 2009 Quote Quote I hear Twardo is pissed because music had not even been invented yet when he was in high school.He gets teary eyed whenever there is a dinosaur program on discovery channel and he hear the Tyrannosaurus call. I can remember lots of Elvis and Buddy Holly and the like....when I was little and I do believe we were listening to the Grand Ole Opry.... every Saturday night. The thing that I REALLLY remember when music was becoming a part of my life.... was the MOTOWN sound... Music you could actually dance to. You sure triggered some good memories! When I was about eleven, my dad gave me an RCA 'portable radio. An old tube type that would also work off a 9-volt battery. Late at night, I'd listen to 'The Oprey'. That old radio would also pick-up the 'WLS Barndance', 'The Wheeling Jamboree'. I could recieve the 100,000 watt stations along the border and if the weather was just right, I could listen to ''Wolfman Jack'. I had that radio for a lot of years, till it 'got lost' in my travels. Like so many others, I watched 'American Bandstand' every day after school. Thanks for your post! Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
