You Like It; It Like You
davidrsutton29 March 2024
If that expression, You Like It; It Like You, sounds vaguely familiar it's because it was the slogan printed on every bottle of the green soda pop bottle of the original national best selling lemon-lime beverage. Since IMDB is not an appropriate place for advertising, i shall not use its well known name.

I use that often forgotten expression in this review because this is a not a movie or documentary. It is a gathering of a few dozen musicians whose music has accompanied us through life. The Best of Times and The Worst of Times's musical tracks of your playlists, are valuable since the mindset and decision making train of thought processes are most difficult because there isn't a one size fits all.

The sequence are the pre-requisites that allowing you to yourself to feel "The Best of Times" happiness that some deny themselves from experiencing (for whatever reasons they choose or believe) Music that one associates with that time will offer a short-cut (or Cut to The Chase) and provide you the roadmap that worked well for you the last time. Conversely, "The Worst of Times" offers in addition to the roadmap but The Light at "The End of The Tunnel" that adds confidence which gives you strength to assist others.

The music was so satisfying, as was hearing Dick Clark who was at the top of his game. Fascinating to me was that Frankie Avalon, a top star in movies and record sales, displayed a rare gift of mastery of the saxophone.

Don't miss it if given the chance. You'll know more than half of the names. Now you have a face to match them. Additionally, you will have be heard 100% of some of their work during your lifetime. Look for Tom Scott, an indescribable young man whose resume shines brighter than some famous stars entire lifetime output. It takes a Village to accomplish raising a child. You get to meet the Village who raised these musicians to be the best of the best. It's refreshing to see artists whose primary objective is create art. Ego must be left at the door. Money is necessary to pay bills, feed your children (and yourself) and to keep the lights on. That taken care of and it's time to "Strike Up The Band!" The audience wants to see the show. What they don't realize is you too want to see and create it 10000 times more than them.
