when I was in my teens, Rock & Roll appeared...I didn't like it....when I was in my 20s, Elvis, The Beatles and Bob Dylan appeared: didn't like them either (though I have heard a few individual items from the last two that were 'tolerable')...and then I discovered Pete Seeger, Richard Dyer-Bennet, Jean Redpath, The New Lost City Ramblers and The Beers Family...no problems from then on..*smile*....I seemed to be immune to 'fads', no matter what they were about, and just didn't care for the music of my adolescence. I listened to big bands, Dixieland jazz, classical stuff...etc...before I found 'folk'
