Thanks for sharing your story fin.
My dad was not so much into hi-fi (popular term in the '40s and '50s) but was a music lover. He had a high stress job and often relaxed with a "music session" in the evening with an hour or so of dedicated listening. That continued even after our family got our first TV in 1950.
At first he had 78s, then began buying LPs of his favorite musicians - Louie Armstrong, Red Nichols, Jack Teagarden, etc. Mom favored pop signers and light classics. I can't say I enjoyed their music that much but the idea of simulating a concert at home developed into a major hobby for my life.
So thanks dad. Oh yes, years later I did learn to appreciate Satchmo and Teagarden.
