Oooh! Parent rock? Heck yes please.

This brings me back to the Napster days of my youth. Sitting in our dining room, 4 computers sharing a dialup connection. My dad would download tons of songs and here are a few that have played this morning that would've been in that downloads folder:

Here's what's currently playing here:

  • The Who - Eminence Front
  • Rare Earth - I just want to celebrate
  • Steely Dan - Do it Again
  • Pink Floyd - Time
  • Rare Earth - Get Ready
  • Chic - Good Times
  • Bad Company - Burnin Sky
  • Led Zeppelin - Kashmir
  • Free - All Right Now

Awww yeah!! Just mentioning the name Napster takes me back. The minute I hear the word "dialup" the signature noise starts up in my head — it's kind of like an avante-garde instrumental song. In any case, you're def taking me back with you! 😀

These are some classic tunes! I could still listen to each one of these today and enjoy the heck out of 'em. I don't know Rare Earth off-hand, so those 2 tunes I defintely gotta check out!

I watched a fun little short doc on Keith Moon, The Who's drummer, yesterday. What a wild man... he's got some chops and originality. I'm gonna throw on Eminence Front right now then headed to Rare Earth. 🌏
