Here is something I was thinking about this morning at breakfast. What defines a Rock n’ Roll band vs. popular music from any given time. Well, my thoughts led to a lot of gray areas, so I moved on.
But from this, I gave myself the challenge this morning to list of all the bands and artists that I saw in concert, mostly in the 1970’s. Tell you the truth, it was not easy as I had to drift back into my foggy memory. (I do not accept the responsibility of not remembering any band :)
