First of all, to me these still are best songs, My husband noticed one day at the store the rock music of the 1970’s was being played over the store radio instead of what we used to her a few years before. He said our generation has taken over the job that controls the music. He right, next time you go to the store you’ll likely to hear one of these songs.
