He even had that large, white-plastic earpiece in when we went to the games at Wrigley Field, always sitting in the expensive $7 box seats.

It always intrigued me because we had the radio turned up and the TV volume down when watching Chicago Cubs and Bears games. As a fledgling Italian-American 5-year old, my musical exposure was basically a combination of watching Tom Jones on television singing "What's New, Pussycat" (as my girl cousins and aunts baby-sat for me, screaming at the top of their lungs) and the sounds of Sinatra' "My Way," which my dad would belt out in between innings as we listened to Cubs games on the AM radio.ĭad always had that little transistor radio in his shirt pocket where pens should have been.
Music started for me much like most of us who grew up in and around that era. Up until then, I rocked-out to my favorite albums from 1976 and '77, including "Foghat Live," Led Zeppelin's "Physical Graffiti" (Kashmir), "Leftoverture" by Kansas, "A New World Record" by The Electric Light Orchestra, "Songs From The Wood" from Jethro Tull and Peter Frampton's blockbuster "Frampton Comes Alive." Yeah, I'd say I was a young rock 'n' roller. It was a difficult time for me, as I was just a sophomore in high school when "Saturday Night Fever" came out in 1977.
People today know me pretty much as a rocker, but there was a fleeting moment when I was almost forced to "pick a team" - disco or rock. I have always loved music … all kinds of music.
