The power of music to move us is immense. I grew up in a household where music was not important -- my parents, born in the 1920s and come of age in the 1940s, apparently enjoyed big band music but bought or listened to little. I became obsessed at age 13 or so and music continues to play an important role in my life to this day 60+ years later.

Thank you very much to those who have responded so far; this is a bit of time-consuming thread, both to post and to read (listen). Much appreciated.
