Default Ha! Got you all beat! I am 55

And some of the gramaphone tracks are actually from the 50's. I know, because I listened to that stuff, at the time it was popular. I have always liked big band music, swing music, etc.

And, as I child growing up in the 50's, watching a lot of old movies from the 20's, 30's and 40's, I became very familiar with the stars and entertainers of those eras. Warner Brother cartoons also parodied a lot of those stars and singers, so I grew up whistling a lot of those old tunes, even a lot of WWI stuff. WWII was as familar to me as Vietnam, even though WWII ended 7 years before I was born.

Now, I have a complete collection of music covering every era from the mid-30's up to now. I have something like 2300 CD's, 145GIGs of harddrive space in my iTunes library, for about 94 days worth of continuous music.

The various grampahone collections for SH3, added a lot of stuff I didn't have, but it took me a few weeks to get all the dates and artists corrected (or even discovered) for some of them. Once I had all the dates corrected, I spent some time copying gramaphone tracks into SH3 Commander's date directories, so songs would start playing in the correct years (and months, if I could find that). That was a lot of work.
