Rick Henry Christopher: A Rock and Roll Road Trip
I have written/compiled many song lists for publication on Vocal. I usually put a lot of research into my lists. For some I've done extensive fan polling. On average I spend about two to three weeks putting my song lists together.

A Guilty Pleasures Playlist
Introduction I am listening to the album "Collaborations Don't Work" by FFS. You see FFS and think, or well I do, "For F*cks Sake" but this is a Franz Ferdinand / Sparks collaboration and very good it is too while I think being steered by the Mael Brothers with the excellent angular sound of Franz Ferdinand I do love it.

A Life of Music
I feel that I'm only alive because of music. Let me explain, most of us love music and a lot of us feel like we're the only one's that experience music on a deeper level than most. But I can honestly say that music affects me so deeply that it has literally saved my life on a number of occasions, I have suffered from depression for as long as I can remember and I remember the feeling of wanting my life to end around the age of 15. At that time I was on my way to becoming the artist I am today and doing so with my music always in the room or on the go, (it was 1984 so yeah, I had a boom box don't judge.). I had to have it on all the time no matter what to the point that it made my parents crazy, even though it was really their fault. I grew up with my mother playing Fleetwood Mac "Rumors", Chicago's Greatest Hits or James Taylor all over the house, while in the garage on any given Friday or Saturday night, my father would be listening to Merle Haggard, Waylon & Willie, B.B. King, The Rolling Stones or he would have WYSO radio playing bluegrass. I loved all of it and I couldn't get enough of it.

My Soundtracks
1. “Anyhow” - Tedeschi Trucks Band https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEXCTqbJmrQ This song resonates with me because it is about making your dreams happen no matter what obstacles arise. I like songs that are inspiring and that cause me to feel motivated.

From the Old Days to Tomorrow. Runner-Up in Melodic Milestone Playlist Challenge.
My earliest memories of music nearly all take place in the backseat of my family's old minivan. It was pretty much the only place I could listen to music at the time. Sure, I had a CD player at home, but I didn't exactly have CDs to play in it. The radio in our car was where I got to hear all my favorites and any new songs that Radio Disney was playing. I still remember the first time I heard Taylor Swift's "Teardrops On My Guitar" on Radio Disney back in 2006 (maybe 2007, now I'm not so sure). It was in our van, of course, and then the entire week or so after, that song was all Radio Disney would play. I knew it by heart by the third go around.

Oldest Song Ever
The oldest song in the world is a matter of debate among historians and musicologists, as there are various theories and claims regarding the origins and age of music. However, based on available evidence and archaeological findings, the oldest known song that has survived to this day is the Hurrian Hymn no. 6, also known as the "Song of Seikilos."
