I'm coming to the Blogging game a bit late, both in time and in years. But hey who cares?? I'm getting a chance to talk about something I love. Music is something that has dominated my life. I have loved music for all of my life. For a while in my early teens I listened to and even pretended to like what was popular, until I started to find out what I actually liked.
I grew up in the 60s. As soon as I say that people tell me how lucky I am/was. With all that great music around it must have been wonderful. Go and have a look at the music charts of the 60s, there was some real crap around. True there was some great stuff that seems to fill all the compilation albums now, but at the time you needed to look for it. Personally I was never a great Beatles fan and still am not. I know that it is almost sacrilegious to say that now, but at the time there were so many far more interesting bands around, some of which I will talk about in this Blog.
Over the years my taste in music has changed, obviously. It has widened, less obviously, and has become very eclectic. I want to use this Blog to talk about tracks that mean a lot to me. This is my soundtrack. I have no intention of producing some chronological record. As a piece of music occurs to me I will talk about it, maybe about the piece of music itself, maybe about where it fits/fitted into my life, maybe what it means to me and why. This is not intended to be a critical review of music or pieces of music. This is an unapologetic personal Blog of my soundtrack. If anyone reads this and feels moved to comment then please do. All I ask is be respectful.
