Music on both sides

None of you guys listen to anything normal? Like hip-hop or The Crystal Method?

Did you have two turntables and a microphone? I'm pretty sure that's a requirement.

Sounds like you were doing a beat box from the wrong end.Then again, that's a popular technique employed by a number of famous recording artists, including that guy from the Police Academy movies.

The only good music is the music from the bible, etc, church music, etc, modern music is the devil, etc, etc,, in God's divine plan everyone's a vegetarian, etc, etc, etc so Biggie Smalls and Tupac don't shoot at each other, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc...

If you were a white middle-class male, that was probably true.You might be interested to know that (from what I recall from a sociology class) tranquilizer use among middle-class women was three times as high as it is today, and teenage unwed pregnancy was much, much higher as well.People get this rosy-colored view of the 50's because they don't realize that problems simply weren't talked about back then. Sure, white folks may have been polite to white folks, but it was also an era of raging civil inequality and racism, and sexual repression of women.You might want to do some more research yourself before coming to a conclusion, but try not to pit the fictional history of the 50's against the reality of today. That's not exactly a fair fight.
