Classical & '60s Folk got me into music listening

'Till my last year of college I really did pay much attention to music. I think it was a friend who got me listening to Baez, Dylan, Ian & Sylvia, Gordon Lightfoot and the like.

Classical music began to engage me about the same time ...

True story: On the bus coming home from university there were two Jewish ladies talking. One was bragging about "My son, the doctor". Amongst her brags she insisted that her son had become interested in Classical music even though she and his father had never had any interest.

I decide that if her son, the doctor, could learn to enjoy Classical, so could I. I've never looked back. And while I haven't listen to Folk in years, Classical is my go-to music more than ever.

BTW, I'm 79.
