The Good Lady's mum loved genesis

You're making me feel old now 😀, it was 'Two Little Boys' for me by good old Rolf Harris, the child abuser though it was more 'fucking listen to it' by my parents as it contained a good moral story.

'The Good Lady' was very lucky being brought up listening to this, I had Jack Jones, Perry Como, and worst of the lot, Johnny Mathis. Thank fuck the music appreciation gene is passed on just as a trait.

My dad listened to all that kind of thing. And he commanded the radio which was always on
I got sick of hearing those things sorry in later life I appreciate them more! Still would voluntarily listen to them tho!

Your dad liked the stuff mine did? My sympathies, if that's what you mean. I never appreciated 'The Wonderful Mathis' as he used to say. My Mum was never a music fan but got dragged to the 'Mathis' concerts by the feet.

My parents had a copy of two little boys and all the Genesis albums up to And then there were Three and then stopped. My sister also worked as a wine buyer at Kwiksave around 2000 - she obviously had a good a good eye for cheap stuff that gets you wasted.

Me, nothing so fancy.

I can understand why they stopped, this was the start of the 'change' and not everyone liked it. Hackett leaving was major.

Must have been near they end, they went bust in 2007, and good riddance.
