Wow, how things have changed....

    .  .  .     I remember when quadrophonic hit. Now, that's back far enough for most!

I was talking to an engineer at work late last week. I mentioned the Quadraphonic fad in the mid 70, as, "you remember the short fad of Quadraphonic in the mid 70s, don't you?"  He said, "I was born in 1979."  I felt old.

I remember my father and I going to hear stereo for the first time in the mid 50's. I was probably less than 10 years old so I enjoyed the record of trains going past. I seem to remember there was a bit of music as well. We were impressed.

Getting back to how our listening habits have changed. I mostly listen to classical and the biggest change that using a music server (JRiver) has brought to my listening habits has been the investigation of the minor composers. Many CDs in my collection have tracks on them that are not by well known composers and once I got the collection digitized and appropriately tagged, it has been a pleasure to explore the byways.
