[Dixielandjazz] I do understand my kid's music

[Kent Murdick]

I find the statement below rather stange.  I'm 61 and have children that 
range from 13 - 40, and I understand their music completely, and even 
like (a little) some of it because it is exactly what I listened to when 
I was a kid.  My parents listened to Count Basie, etc. and I understood 
that too. My parents, however, never understood rock music. That's what 
I mean by a change.  BTW, the computer loop thing you describe souds 
like "Techno" to me.  There is a sub-genre called "Techno-Bossa" which 
is kind of interesting.

 >>>>But that's OK, it's
not FOR me. My father never understood my music, I don't understand pop
music today, and I doubt that I will understand the next big thing. But
that's OK - Bach really didn't understand Mozart's stuff, Mozart didn't
understand Beethoven, etc.>>>>>
