[lbo-talk] pre-school rock

[andie nachgeborenen]

Baby Hannah (now 16 and a  HS junior) at Ivan's age
liked the Ramones and Dvorak's Slavonic Dances.
Anything loud and rhythmic. These days she listens to
Dylan, Will The Circle Be Unbroken and other old-timey
country music. She liked Rigoletto, which I took her
to last night, but doesn't listen to recorded opera.
Joel, now 13, likes the Clash. Johnny Cash, and Tom
Robinson Band. Can't recall what he liked at 4 weeks.
