I have continued my committment to exposing Olivia to the great music Juggernauts of our time (and just before my time). During her existance she has absorbed the likes of Queen, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin (not a huge fan but I’m working on it), ABBA and more. Currently we are absorbing the power of Yes. Thanks to the mp3/USB capabilities of my car deck, I have the entire Yes anthology literally at my fingertips. She is now working her way through these great musicians and has become very fond of ‘Abiline’ and ‘Run with the Fox’. After a few listens she can keep up with the lyrics and hum to the guitar solos.

Now I’m looking for the next great band to expose her to. Any suggestions.

At home, she has become a massive Julie Andrews fan. She loves to emulate her by whirling and twirling through the Sound Of Music. Particularly the ‘Do-Ra-Mi’ song. She loves the pose at the end of the song where ‘Maria’ points her finger in the air a la Saturday Night Fever.
