Wonderful backstory,
@goodjohnjr, especially from someone who has such great and diverse musical taste, of all the music that you've posted.
And Gloria Estefan, you're right, that is a excellent connection
Thank you,
@Jonny Quest, I appreciate the compliment, I definitely like a variety of music genres in various languages from various time periods, and I have definitely being enjoying music that you & others have shared here.
Yep, you got it, I was thinking of part of that Gloria Estefan song.
I certainly miss the days when I was a kid listening to music on old records from my parent's music collection.
Sadly, after the record player broke & new technology like cassettes & then CD & MP3s came along, my parents never did build a diverse music collection again.
They mostly / only listen to gospel on the radio / Christian radio, there is nothing wrong with listening to gospel music et cetera, but now that is pretty much all they listen to.
Fortunately, when I got old enough to start my own music collection, those early days of having access to old records from different genres led to me always liking a variety of music.
Unfortunately, I was limited to mostly local radio, VH1, MTV, and a tiny bit of BET; until college when I listened to some online radio from France et cetera.
Which led to me discovering music by Pauline Croze and then building a more international music collection.
