I watched the best movie today! The Music Never Stopped is a GREAT story about a father and a son that connect through music. The son left home in the 60s when he was a teen and his parents hadn't seen him in well over a decade until they got a call one day that he was in the hospital with a brain tumor. After surgery, the son had a form of amnesia and his memories would only come back through music that he was passionate about. And his favorite band is the Grateful Dead (which was my favorite in high school too). The father ends up learning all the Grateful Dead songs just as a way to be able to talk with his son. There is a lot more to this movie and it is really touching. Featured in the movie is Touch of Grey which was a new Grateful Dead song from 1987. The tour they went on that year was when I went to my first concert, which was Grateful Dead at Alpine Valley in June of 1987. It changed my life and this movie reminds me of all the magic that comes with music like this.
