A while back my son ask me to buy a 4 terabyte hard drive and give it to him for a surprise for his mom. He dropped the drive off today and I plugged it into the TV and there's over 17,000 different albums loaded some new many old stuff I haven't heard in years. We could listen for the rest of our lives and never hear all this music. It's great to go back in time and hear the music we grew up with, heck a lot my Dad grew up with. There's so much we don't really know where to start, got the Beatles going now and it'll take all day to hear all their's. Makes an old man want to kick up his heals. "here comes the sun"

There just isn't anything in this world like the flashback you get from hearing some good old tunes.
Good on your son for doing that. Enjoy!!

No doubt, there's some head banging stuff on there too Dean Martin you name it it looks like we got it Muddy Waters, Sly and the family Stone, Smokey Robinson, every country artist I've thought of so far. There's so much I don't know where to start, even the old Kaytel greatest hits of the 50's 60's 70's, everything Willy, Waylon the list go on and on and on

He said him and a lot of his friends had put together all the music they had stored and on albums and loaded it on hard drives for them and thought we might like one. Think I gave $85 for the drive and got thousands of dollars of music back. That was a deal of a lifetime. There's 22 beatles albums alone...

There's a Almond Joys albums in this batch, that's before they became Almond Brothers, and all their albums are there plus an Anthology, the best of, and a couple other remakes of the Almond Brothers. Two Dickey Betts Highway Call, and Dickey Betts and Great Southern, I've never heard it and I'm a huge Almond Brothers fan.
I can't imagine how long it took to put all this different music together but it had to have taken years for all the people he knows to do this. I just keep scrolling through and finding more and more stuff. All Lyard Skynard, ZZ Top, Van Morrison, Pink Floyd, Queen, Crosby Nash and Young, Paul Simon, Charlie Pride, Dolly, Porter Wagner, the list goes on and on.

It's great that my son and his friends appreciate the old stuff to get together and put all this music on a flash drive. I know I'll enjoy the fruits of their labors.

It was a time when the words were understandable and not just amplified noise. Don't care for the head banging stuff, that is for a whole different generation.

I don't care much for the head banging stuff either but this is one of those bands, take just a minute and give it a listen
