I'm a transgender woman who has loved music for as long as I can remember. My earliest memories are of sitting on the floor and listening to 45's and 78's. Music is the essential part of my life. Over the years I made many attempts to make a list of my favorite music. In 2011 I came up with the idea of http://scotts-vital-music.blogspot.com and creating the list by posting a song every day. When I transitioned in 2015 and changed my name I created this blog to continue the project...

"Riders in the Sky" by Sons of the Pioneers
I dug out this old record to listen to while we were having lunch with our friends Rob and Connie. Such a great album, my family loved this record, we listened to it over and over.
I noticed this is one of the records I put a date stamp on. My idea was to keep track of when I bought each record. But all of these old albums I didn't know when they were purchased originally, so I stamped them all with this date: Mar 11, 1967. Just over 50 years ago. Half a Century!! Wow!!!
Things like this always make me stop and think. What would I have thought if I had been able to look 50 years into the future and found that I was living very happily as a woman!
I love all of the things that the record companies came up with to entice people to buy records. "Miracle Surface(R)... your assurance of greatly enhanced listening pleasure." and "Miracle Surface(R) record grooves contain the anti-static agent 317X...". Whoooo! Too funny!!
