I happen to be 14 years younger than my sister and 10 years younger than my brother so, apart from music and films etc I may have liked I also had my sister and brother's music going on around the house.
Add to that my parents being about 40 when I was born and both of THEM being the youngest in THEIR families, and you have me listening to some pretty ancient music hall stuff as well. Family get togethers were always a sing song round the piano when my parents invited their older brothers and sisters round. :D
I think this is why I'm always surprised that people 10 or 20 years younger than me don't have any idea about what was going on beyond what THEY are familiar with.
Did their families not have favourite 'old' films, singers or whatever to share?
