My Dad, while not into funk, was surprisingly modern on his music selections. It's his fault that I can sing almost every song by the Eagles, Lynard Skynard and Steve Miller having grown up with it.
Note: I didn't say his taste was good.
Lorne: You know what they say about people who need people. Connor: They're the luckiest people in the world. Lorne: You been sneaking peeks at my Streisand collection again, Kiddo? Connor: Just kinda popped out.

My parents aren't really clueful on anything post-1975 that isn't folk, classic country (think Cash) or...well, like Alison Kraus (sp) and backwoods blues. They know their music well, but anything else?
Sometimes my father tries to hold forth on rap and hip hop and I about blow a gasket. And *I* don't know much rap or hip hop, but enough to know he is talking out of his ass. And has not listened to any of it in, oh, the past 15 years. But he's all about holding strong opinions on things he knows nothing about.
Fighting with snapfish now. Thinking I'll go back to ofoto, cause it ain't working....

Growing up, my parents had tapes of Conway Twitty and Loretta Lynne singing "You're the Reason Our Kids Are Ugly". IJS.

Bluegrass! That's what I was thinking of. They like bluegrass.

Cindy, I always feel compelled to disclaimer my dad because, well, it's just easier that way.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Johnny Cash, I love. Willie Nelson, I adore. Loretta on her own, you bet. Conway AND Loretta. NSM.
Dad is a huge bluegrass fan, too.
