Jerry Rasmussen Great Guitar and Sax players of your era (32) RE: Great Guitar and Sax players of your era 26 Sep 10


That's great, Arthur! I was born in 1935 and I love the music of the '20's. I grew up in a family where we sang alot of the popular music from the turn of the century, and I cut my teeth on the music of the '40's and the Big Band era. Right now I am reading a fascinating biography of Bix Beiderbecke, one of the two greatest trumpet players of the '20's, along with Louis Armstrong. I love Bix's music, and he died before I was born. I've enjoyed pop music through doo wop from it's earliest beginnings through rockabilly and rock and rooll and rock all the way up until rap and hip hop. I never could get into rap, but some of the hip hop like the Blackeyed Peas I can enjoy. I'm all over the map on folk, jazz, a fair amount of country until it became hat music, gospel, blues, soul.... you get the idea. For most people, their era is from about 15 to 25 years of age, and then it's all nostalgia after that. I expect that as long as I am kicking around this world, I'll hear new music that excites me. Oh yeah, there's also reggae, African music....
