We had the library, not the school library which had no such information. There was no library within walking range. Then we also had Rolling Stone magazine, but the interest in reading that just wasn't a high priority either.

I certainly use the internet now to look up things as I stumble across them on my own or people bring to my attention. Provides me with a hobby of sorts now. 🙂

Yep I read Rolling Stone from around late 69 on but really in college later

Occasionally I’d grab a Creem or Crawdaddy

We had a great FM underground station from 68 on

WJDX 202.9 the Rock which became WZZQ

they did some educating on bands too

And at night I could get KAAY bleeker street from Little Rock

They ran that show 10pm till like 4am

Progressive fm rock instead of singles and top 40

And delved into things about the bands

Then I learned more from RS I guess

But honestly I’ve learned more delving like now than I ever did then

So much rock history out there

It interests me like politics and girls
