C.V.’s 10 to Check Out Podcast
“Sharing the joy of music in hopes of bringing back old memories or helping listeners discover unfamiliar artists, bands, or songs that they might want to look further into. At the same time, helping out Veterans and their families with donations along the way."
In honor of our 6 month anniversary of sending these lists out, this one is a little different. This list is about the influence my dad had on my musical tastes. So listeners may recognize a lot of these songs and this list is less about what I think a song means and more about my early memories of the music I heard in our household. My first memories of music of course are singing hymns at church and singing the kids songs that Mom played on her old classical acoustic guitar. But my earliest memories of the music that started to build my own tastes were songs I heard on the AM radio or 8-track tapes while driving with my Dad on the weekends in the mid-70's. You see, when I was young, my Dad worked a 2 to 10 shift which meant that I never saw him during the week because he would be sleeping while I was getting ready for school, he would be at work when I got home from school and I would be in bed when he would get home from work. So I really treasured those times on the weekend when he and I went somewhere together and these are the songs from those times. Oh, and I added a couple extra songs since it was hard to leave any out.
