Wow, yes. I hadn't thought of it. She has an old voice. That's a good analogy.
My Mother liked lots of music (she got surprisingly into folk music in the late 50s and early 60s) but to my father there were only two kinds of music. Country and Western :)
So I really have a pretty good grounding in all three of those styles, too. I have said that Wille and Waylon played some blues with 'My Heroes have Always been Cowboys" and "Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys." Wrote about that once upon a time.
It is funny growing up we think our parents music is so lame, then later we get it, and we did not even know we got it while we were growing and listening to our own music.
