I remember. I also remember my parents hating rock, initially.

When the Beatles were on Ed Sullivan, they said it was just loud noise and you couldn't understand the words. Now both my parents acknowledge that the Beatles wrote a lot of beautiful music. They even like a lot of 50s-70s music now. Go figure.
