Judy Garland

Music Lane

It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

What's happening with me? I am an average 40 year old guy who is addicted to the hobby like everyone else here. My musical tastes started out hearing late 60's/early 70's rock (Stones, Floyd, Dylan, Allmans, Hendrix) and lots of classical piano music (two siblings played quite well). Then I stepped into ELP which lead to an intense liking for classical music (as well as jazz, thanks Keith) which led into opera.
Sounds typical? Well, I am also into the vinyl addition as well. On occassion, I would acquire other's record collections.
I have records I thought would be thrown/given away (eg. I would never spin). These are Judy Garland/Liza Minelli/Barbara Streisand/Broadway Shows records.
Out of curiousity, I played a Barbara Streisand record and guess what I really liked it! I think it was called 'My Name is Barbara'. It had excellent sonics, a jazzy feel and she can sing. Oh no, this can't be but there's more ....
Last night I grabbed a random stack of records from my collection for an evening's listening. Among the records were 'Jimmy Smith/Wes Montgomery Continuing Adventures', 'Gottschalk Piano for 4 Hands', and 'Judy Garland in London' during dinner.
What a Judy Garland record? Yes, a Judy Garland record and guess what, I liked it alot!
What is happening to me? I thought only gay guys like Judy Garland, Barbara Streisand and Broadway music.
Am I losing it? Anyone else run into this situation?
