While your wife may not know the name of George Harrison I’m sure she’s heard of the Beatles, right?!

Yes, the same way I've heard of Stephen Foster. A mark of an era, maybe a couple of noted tunes, but nothing more.

Sorry, kiddo, but Stephen Foster was one of America’s greatest composers. Just had the pleasure of seeing a play in which “Hard Times” was sung. Reduced me and the audience to tears. A genuis who died in total poverty but obviously not forgotten by 21st Century audiences.
