Welcome ...

Welcome to my very first post on Jukebox In My Head! I am so excited to have a place where I can totally unleash the wonderful soundtrack that plays in my head nonstop. I wake up every day with a different song playing as I start my day. Like the O'Jays sang, "I love music - any kind of music," and I am looking forward to sharing it with all of you!

I don't know if I have a favorite genre of music, but I will say I probably own more gospel and rhythm & blues than anything. It's the music I grew up on and it's where I find my comfort.  While I was growing up, the sounds of Sam Cooke, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Gladys Knight, Walter Hawkins and Shirley Caesar filled my home. I can almost guarantee on any day you can walk into the home I've made for myself and hear some of that same music.

Since I've grown a little older and had many experiences and exposure to different things, I have grown to love country music, a lot of classic rock and some pop music as well. If you were to put my iPod on shuffle, you might hear anything from Otis Redding to Queen to Clint Black to Kirk Franklin. My musical tastes vary and so shall posts on this blog.

So, welcome, I hope I post music you like, will learn to like or at the very least, tolerate. And I'm open to suggestions. Let's hope I don't sell away all my possessions just to pay iTunes. :-D
