Unlike most of my generation, I didn't learn about our Dino from my parents. I learned about him all on my own, via his album The Door Is Still Open to My Heart, a vinyl that one of my cousins had. We played that record until we wore it out and had to buy a new one!

Hey pallie, likes Miss AOW, it is always so refreshin' to know that many many pallies were welcomed into our Dino's world through self-discovery...but likes I gotta 'fess up that I truly truly believe that it was our Dino who drew you to himself and won you into the Dino-fold! Keeps lovin' our most beloved Dino!

Once drawn into the Dino-fold, I wasn't interested in following the rock stars of my era. They couldn't hold a candle to our Dino!

I'm sure that my parents were relieved that my stereo was playing Dino tunes and not some of the cacophonous "music" so in vogue at that time.
