Radio

Now that I am no longer subbing I spend a lot of time at home where Eunice is pretty much house bound and we both enjoy listening to music on Youtube. She likes music from the Grand Ole Opry and I noted that they broadcast over station WSM out of Nashville. When I was a teenager most of the music was from the Big Band Era but we young people had to find something different so we turned to guitars. There were very few guitars during the Big Band days. At that time there were radio stations called clear channel stations and under the right conditions they could be heard thousands of miles away. One such station was WSM so we would wait until late at night when the local stations went off the air and we could pick up Nashville where we listened intently for the sounds of guitars and harmonicas. This country type music blended over time with rock and roll and we were enthralled with the new sounds of blue grass rock. In time this music gained popularity and we could listen to local stations like KMOX out of St Louis to the top forty tunes. This was how we spent Saturday morning. What goes around comes around and I now spend my time at home listening to music but instead of on the radio its on this new contraption called Youtube TV.
