Was your taste in music influenced by your parents?

Like it or not, we are influenced by the music our parents play when we’re young. You might fight and resist this fact for a good chunk of your life but, sure enough, it’ll creep up on you (generally after puberty and you settle down). I was once a punk-listening teen refusing to conform to the music of my parents, but then one day, when I was well into my undergrad – BAM – I was blaring a Steve Earle album while driving and singing along.
