I don&#8217;t want to fall too far behind and yet i don&#8217;t want to do do too much just in case I end up starting over. At the moment, we are still in the period known as <em>The Scratchy 45 Days<\/em> where the source of our musical discovery lies in the large but still limited collection of mom&#8217;s 45&#8217;s. She really did have a lot of records and from what I have always felt a wide variety of artists and styles. The time window here is a fuzzy late 1960&#8217;s to late 1970&#8217;s. I say fuzzy because the entrance was when I was 3 to 4 years old and very difficult to remember with any clarity. afterall I couldn&#8217;t read at that time including clocks and calendars. The end of the period is also fuzzy but mainly because of a long overlapping of era&#8217;s as mom&#8217;s collection faded out and my own began with <em>The KISS Age.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve spent a good deal of time looking through my media library and trying to pick out the songs that fall belong to <em>The Scratchy 45 Days.<\/em> There really are a lot. It is\u00a0difficult to put into words the musical explosion that took place at that time. I hope that you don&#8217;t find <em>The Scratchy 45 Days <\/em>boring as I spin these stacks of 7.
