A
I don't know. I grew up, uh, in the, the sixties, and at that time, uh, it was is a changing time for the whole music scene, I guess and I grew up with the Beatles and the Rolling Stones and the whole pot culture during that time and went through that phase and kind of stayed with it I guess for several years after I graduated from college and, and thereafter but have since, uh, I grew up in a small town in, in southern Oklahoma I have kind of gone back to, uh, more of a county, uh, flavor in music. Um, I'm not quite sure why that is and it seems like almost a opposite, but I guess I got away from what I consider to be the pot, uh, sounding music. It didn't have what, you know, I guess what I was looking for at the time country tells more of a, a story. It kind of reminds me of my roots of growing up and I've, I've become I guess more of a country fan over the years.
B
When you say that you grew up, uh, in the sixties I take it that was the, uh, teenage type years or, uh,
A
Yeah, that was my teenage years. I was born in fifty and, and, uh,
B
Okay, we, we're very similarly aged, so we probably have an in, interesting perspective on the music on the times, so I'm just a couple years older than you,
A
Yeah.
B
um, essentially I was one of the nerdy types in high school really which meant that I, for one reason or another I didn't pay much attention to music, but as I look back now I realize it was very formative for me, uh, my early popular music interests were in Simon and Garfunkel, whom I saw perform when I was in college and I became attached to that style of, uh, urban, urban country if there is such a thing,
