Like some posters, I listened to music under the covers of my bed.
Unlike them, what I was listening to, unknown to my parents, was classical
music.
My mother thought "Doggie in the Window" was the sort of music I should
like. She grudgingly put up with "Autumn Leaves" when I brought that home.
But both folks hated CM, so I had to hide away to listen to it.
Oh, OK, on Friday night I switched stations to catch rhythm 'n blues
broadcast from Oakland. (Later I discovered the same melody for the very
raunchy Sally Had a Baby was used at Sunday church services as a devotional
Mary Had A Baby...)
Vivaldi et al was broadcast most often, so that's what I liked then.
Later, when I found Bach, I was hooked for life.
Radio is what brought CM into my world. It's still a major player for most
people. That's why I am a CM programmer on our public radio station. When
a teenager comes up and says he loves the show, I know why I'll stay on
doing this.
