From Country to Disco: My Musical Favorites

Daily writing prompt
What is your favorite genre of music?

It’s hard for me to choose just one favorite genre of music because I enjoy rock, pop, country, and R&B. Lately, I’ve found myself strolling down memory lane, revisiting the classic hits of my youth. I grew up on country western music, often listening to my parents’ old vinyl records featuring artists like Conway Twitty, Glen Campbell, and Charley Pride.

I also loved the heartfelt lyrics and acoustic sounds of folk artist John Denver, as well as the storytelling style of country crooner Kenny Rogers. At the same time, I couldn’t resist the energetic beats of disco—especially the music of Earth, Wind & Fire and the Bee Gees. Soft rock was another favorite, with bands like the Eagles providing a mellow, easy-listening backdrop to many of my teenage memories.

  1. Yes. I have memories of Kenny Rogers story telling – The Gambler, Coward of the County and the great duet with Dolly Parton. I can’t decide on which avatar of the Bee Gees was better – the old “Massachusetts” slow style or the later Stayin Alive energetic style. Guess both are great.
