Guess it depends on your background. I wouldn't say BJ Thomas is the most famous person in the world, but growing up my mom listened to 61 Country all the livelong day. So as a kid I knew BJ Thomas, Eddie Rabbit, Mandrell Sisters, Bellamy Brothers, Crystal Gale, etc., more than most people knew The Eagles or Led Zeppelin.
I would imagine the other demographics have similar experiences for folks like Quincy Jones, Valerie Simpson, James Ingram, etc. [Reply]
Damn the current/past president and/or social climate! When do we riot/start a go fund me? How can I belittle/champion this death with my own political beliefs/agenda? What is the trendy response to show I care more than everyone else? Tell me what to feel!!!! [Reply]
