When did you start to love music and why?

My story is short but in 1962 our family lived on military housing in France. My folks purchased a Grundig tube console stereo and loved playing music with friends. This was my introduction to music. Interestingly when the Grundig (German made)stereo broke down we called for a French repairman. All he could do was cuss as he tried to make repairs. Finally he gave up and said only a german repairman could fix it.

I personally think that music is like a time machine and can instantly transport you back to a time and place but just as important it can be exciting and or relaxing.

When? Ever since I first heard it.
Why? "and It was very good" - Genesis 1:31

Actually, Louis Armstrong was the first to really bring it home for me. I was 5.

Growing up hearing the many gospel choirs and singings groups and soloist in church. From the Hammond B3 organ to the brothers playing a wash board and spoons and mothers tambourines. Having school assemblies where the school orchestra would play.

Over the many years I have grown to have a great appreciation for many types and styles of music. It truly is a joyous journey for the ears.

A thread for the world! There can't possibly be someone out there who doesn't love music. Unless of course they suffer from some sort of disorder. I'm with Iso. Can't remember that far back. Probably something like 'Twinkle twinkle little star'.

I started liking the Beatles around 1964 when I was 5 and it has continued since. I think the reason that I am involved with this thread was because my Father was a serious music lover and audiophile. We had a Sherwood amp and tuner with a RekoKut or similar TT and a really big Sony Reel to Reel.
