@RasmaSandra It's not my age (I doubt that you're older than me :-)), but the fact that I didn't grow up in the USA. Not all American hits made it across the Atlantic.

@MALUSE you are right there. I have a music blog so I am constantly checking out all kinds of music that's why it seems I know so many different types. I came into the world at the end of the 1950s and my childhood was in the 1960s. I always felt frustrated when I discovered rock and roll that I had missed the 1950s and I was to young to be part of the hippie generation in the 1960s. So the best I could do was to learn as much as I could about the music I had missed. I guess if you lived in the UK you would probably know more about both American and British rock. I have heard rock songs in German here on the radio and I enjoy them as well. We have a radio station that plays songs in various languages.

You get kudos for a Sue Lyon reference. "Lolita" has become a long forgotten actress.
