Sole searching

 


If only everyone was a Beatles fan. At least we'd understand each other on some level. The Beatles transcend generations. My 17-year old daughter loves the Beatles. My 15-year old son, not so much. But then again he has very eclectic taste in everything. I don't even know if he listens to music. 

ChatGPT thinks Rubber Soul was one of the Beatles most important and influential works. But ChatGPT believes everything it finds on the Internet. 

I still love Revolver because it was my first record album purchase. At least I could purchase an album. What do kids do now? There are no record stores. There are no albums as far as I know (except for stuff Taylor Swift cranks out). Lacking physical things does have it drawbacks even if it makes it easier to listen to music.  Hell, all I have to do is say, "Alexa, play...blah, blah, blah," and the song I want will start playing. Well, unless Alexa didn't quite hear what I said and then god knows what crap she'll play me.

Oh, but music doth sooth my sole.
