Actually my original question was more to do with our feelings toward modern music as we get older. My Parents disliked most pop music when I was young and I find myself feeling the same as I get older with respect to most of today's music.

I have a Huey Lewis and the News CD in the car. When we pick up the M5 heading for Plymouth and the Sat Nav says straight on for 150 miles it certainly makes the first hours worth disappear quickly!

I remember in the sixties buying a weekly magazine called "WEEKEND". Inside would be the lyrics of one of the recent chart songs. I was amazed how often, by only listening to the song, how wrong my version of the words was!!
I have a very eclectic (showing off my grammar school education!) choice in music and love this one.
Still not really "modern"!!!

. Just to refer to a posting I made a couple of weeks ago in "Song for today" I personally will always remember him for his sax solo in Hazel O'Connor's hit single Will You and I would like to make that song for today. The world has lost a brilliant musician. Wesley Mcgoogan played the saxaphone on Will You I pinched this little biography from the Guardian Wesley Magoogan – sax on Will You That sax solo was played by Wesley Magoogan, who played in O’Connor’s band Megahype as life imitated art and the actor-playing-singer became a bona fide singing superstar with several hits including Will You. Cruelly, after he later played with the Beat and Joan Armatrading, Magoogan’s magic fingers were injured in an accident with a circular saw, a harsh fate for someone whose most famous moment moved people around the world to tears.

I stand corrected. You are right Littlemouse, I know Raphael Ravenscroft worked with Hazel O Connor and I incorrectly assumed he played the sax on Will You. Apologies for that
