Music to my Eyes
Music truly is the spice of life. People's preferences open a window for us to see what kind of person they are. I've always been a fan of music--I started listening to the radio while getting ready for school at the age of 7. Actually, looking back it started much earlier. My mom used to listen to Oldies, in other words, her generation's music, when I was little. I remember her singing along with the music and liking a lot of it myself. A few years later I discovered my parents had a record player and about 1,000 records. Considering I was about nine or ten, I didn't know a lot of the artists. I did know Aretha Franklin, The Beatles and Sonny and Cher. Sometimes I would play the Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band album and just listen to the crackles and scratches in the record--I loved it. There is nothing better than an old-school record sound on a really great song. Even at a young age I knew how good this album...
