For me, it was Tchaikovsky and Ella Fitzgerald.
Loved them both. I was about 18 months old and they both remain important to me.
Quite some time later...I got into rock and soul. My father was appalled...
"She's wasting time and money about something she won't care about 6 months from now..." Hahaha. SO Wrong, as it turned out. Still love it.
How did YOUR parents feel about Sixties and Seventies music?

Herb Albert for me too and an odd album called Victory at Sea, music from a WWII documentary series that my dad loved. He had eclectic tastes and he ruled the stereo, so I grew up listening to everything he liked: classical, jazz, big band, show tunes, and popular music. Didn't really hear much in the way of country until later in life, my dad hated it, thought it was maudlin and unsophisticated. This from a man who listened to an Alvin and the Chipmunks album, lol. He was okay with rock and roll and both my parents loved to dance so I have happy memories of the six of us dancing around the house to music.
As for me, I remember putting on Build Me Up Buttercup on my little box turntable in my room and dancing alone to that one. Whenever I hear it now, it takes me back and I can still see that turntable and the skinny little girl in pigtails jumping around to the beat.
