The 70's were a terrible influence on such bands that originated from the 1960's like the Rolling Stones, or hard rockers like KISS. Everyone got into the disco craze back in the 1970's.

55%, but some of the questions were loaded. They could have asked much better questions, IMHO.

[Mrs.Nooseman]

Evening BigSkyFreeper.
Thanks for stopping by and playing.
Wow 85% is pretty darn good.

I guess I better take the quiz and see what I can come up with.

The Power Of Influence

ODB RADIO: Listen Now | Download

READ: Matthew 5:1-16

You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? —Matthew 5:13

On February 9, 1964, the Beatles appeared on The Ed Sullivan Show and captivated the youth of America. After hearing their music and seeing their "look," I did what millions of young American boys did—I begged my parents to let me grow my hair. Then, along with my best friend Tommy, I started a garage band. The Beatles’ performance had such an impact on us that we intentionally tried to be like them. It was a significant introduction to the power of influence.

Years later, the power of influence came to mean something far more significant to me as I began my journey as a follower of Christ. I had the desire to live under the influence of Christ, but I also wanted to be an influencer of others by pointing them to the Savior.

In part, this is what Jesus was challenging us to understand in Matthew 5:13-16. Salt and light are influential factors in a dark and corrupting world, and Christ, who is the Light of the world, calls us to be lights of influence as well. The Master who modeled perfect purity calls us to be salt that adds flavor and prevents corruption.

May we not only be influenced by Christ but also be influencers for Christ in a needy world.

Lord, let me be a shining light
In all I say and do,
That Your great love displayed in me
May lead someone to You. —Sper

As the "salt of the earth," Christians will make others thirsty for the "Water of Life."

Bible in One Year:   Leviticus 1-3; Matthew 24:1-28

Even question #11 was easy. Heard the song on XM satellite radio just yesterday. A one-hit wonder.

Thanks for the thread! How are you tonight?

[real saxophonist]

Well, yeah. The popular music did. Just like it does today. The manufactured product. But there was a whole lot more going on then, just like there is now.

[Mrs.Nooseman]

Oh ,sorry I miss understood.
When I here the term blowing chunks ,I associate it with something negative.

Evening An American in Turkiye.
Thanks for stopping by and playing.

5 percent. I didn't answer any question where I hadn't heard of any of the songs or artists. So I answered two and got one right. This reconfirms my recollection of the 80's, which is that there was nothing worth listening to.
