Adam Reader, also known as The Professor of Rock... is a freakin' legend.

youtube.com/watch?v=TWn2ShHJnN covering "I can't make you love me" performed by Bonnie Raitt.

PoR is so gracious and respectful as he covers each of the artists. I came from the days of the Satanic Panic, and there was so much wonderful music back in the day I couldn't enjoy because "if it ain't God's Gospel & Country/ Western... IT'S OF THE DEVIL!!!"

But that music was still part of my background, stuck in my head after all these years. That's the power of THAT music at THAT time! I very much appreciate how Reader covers the background and context of this music I had in the background despite my parent's efforts to keep me from the Evil Devil Worship Music. For Reader, it's personal, it's authentic, the music is *life*.

Please take time to check out his YT channel and see if he covers a favorite of yours. You might catch an interview with Ann Wilson of Heart, or Santana. Just... check it out, and I'd love to talk about this guy, the music, and the legends of Rock that inspire us today.
