I’m a hybrid-genre person, which a lot of people find confusing. I grew up listening to American country music and rock n’ roll made between 1955 and 1959.

The whole experience of getting an album from an artist you like and listening to it from beginning to end is sort of gone. Now it’s piecemeal. – Tom Scholz
