After seeing the HBO documentary about Wade Robson and Jimmy Safechuck, I could go the remainder of my life without hearing another MJ song. There are so many really good musical artists. My first rock n roll record was Rock Around the Clock. I never got into Elvis or Pat Boone but I saw Chuck Berry at a Rock n Roll show. The shows then weren't just one artist but rather 10 or 12. Chuck Berry sang Maybelline and the crowd went nuts. He sang one other and he was done, but I thought the balcony at the Syria Mosque in Pittsburgh , Pa was going to come down. My mother worked for KQV in PGH and the salesmen there would give her tickets for the rock n roll shows. We had front row seats. We saw all the musicians who were popular in the late 50s early 60s. I love rhythm and blues and Doo Wop but I enjoy a disco song or two and country western but not a steady diet.
