“ Rock and roll has probably given more than it’s taken.”
~ Charlie Watts
(more memories from A Life in Vinyl)
One of the ways that I earned money to save up for my first stereo was by babysitting for a family that lived just across the road on a cul-de-sac near the local golf course. Mr Burke was the heir and owner of the local lumberyard, so he was considered rather well-to-do by our neighborhoods standards. His wife, Katherine, was from well-heeled Boston stock, and she brought with her a level of sophistication and refinement that was rare in Western Colorado.
