I started thinking about the changes in music since the time I was my youngest’s age. Maybe a bit younger. It was sometime during my grade school years.
My neighbor friend’s dad listened to a lot of Pink Floyd.

That was the first time I remember hearing a “bad word” in a song. I didn’t even like the song or want the whole song on tape, just that one…
