Daily Prompt: Papa Loves Mambo
When music was poetic
There was a time when music was still music. There was a time when it was poetic and creative. It was a time when songs told a story of love, pain, joy and ecstasy (sometimes all in the same song). Don’t misunderstand me, there a few artists who are still making (what I consider) music and not copying over what’s has been done already.
I still love those sounds
I grew up to the sounds of R&B and Gospel coming from the radio and TV. My parents were people who enjoyed having a good time. I also spent weekends with a family who loved music. It’s these sounds that I still seek out and love this day. I have since broadened my music interest into jazz with the likes of the Coltrane, Parker, Wynton, Harry Connick Jr, Frank Sinatra, Fitzgerald. I also love new school artist with an old feel like John Legend, Anthony Hamilton and John Mayer. My taste for music is all over the place, and I still love Gospel music that ranges from Chris Tomlin, Clint Brown and Gilbert Earl Patterson. The sounds in the house as a child could at times set the atmosphere. So like my parents, I use music to set my atmosphere.
