It started with Ed Sullivan. My sisters were all older and they went crazy over the Beatles.
So we had the 45s, I Wanna Hold your Hand.

Our connection to the band was even close because my cousin was married to Louise Harrison, George’s sister.
My older sister Patricia even met the band members.
In college, I loved Fleetwood Mac, Earth, Wind and Fire, and Boz Scaggs.
Elton was a favorite for decades.
Another music story: It was rumored and then Newsweek published a story in 1963 that a high school kid, Lorre Wyatt, from my hometown of Millburn, NJ, actually wrote Blowin’ in the Wind and that Bob Dylan purchased it. Dylan has denied it.
