I was brought up on "Big Band" music.
When I was at Disneyland in 79, I saw a revamped version of the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra at the Carnation Milk Stand. Later when I got back to my hotel room, I called my parents and told them who I had seen in concert.

They went bananas
Duke Ellington
Cab Calloway
Count Basie
Jimmy Dorsey
Tommy Dorsey
Loius Armstrong
I can`t remember what all music my parents had but this is some of it.
They also like New Orleans Dixieland Jazz
Chicago Blues
Memphis Blues
All I can say is : Thanks Mom & Pop for influencing me about music.
