I grew up with Bob Dylan by osmosis....my Dad is the hugest Dylan fan. He also dug the Beatles and the Stones, and nowadays listens to very little else...still. I've tried making him cool compilations to get some new music into him but it's like pushing shit uphill.
Mum was very much into Janis Joplin and Elton John, and I have such vivid memories of her playing 'Goodbye Yellow Brick Road' and 'Honky Château.'
My kids tend to like some of the music I like, and my older girl is developing quite an interesting ear for music, which is really gratifying. But she won't tolerate Mudhoney.....yet.
