Musically Minded Masterclass

In my sixty plus years of life
music has always been my love
loved the Beatles and all 60s stuff
during my school days was enough

For spell in teens had a change
Scots traditional music I did like
that lasted not to long at all
needed something else to strike

In 70s got real into punk
it's high energy really got me
told a message got down deep
showed what I needed to see

Also at that time heard Dory Previn
this lady was depressing but real good
her songs were stories so real
feeling like I was sure was my food

Within last decade really love classical
giving me a calming peace so new
just what I needed for my soul
so smooth makes my real cue

So that's my musical master class
every era was for me just right
such joy received in every type
gave me meat made real good bite
