A Class All Our Own - Music Appreciation 1972

To finish off my High School Music activities, myself and 3 others, who hated our first periods, found out that the District allowed students to create a curriculum if they could write the details, find a teacher with a free class to supervise, afree classroom and meet some other requirements. What we did was create a Music Appreciation Class. I was able to convince the Choir teacher, who had the period free and whose class room had a super audio system. What we did was leave Business Law & Physics and play rock & roll albums for an entire period. The teacher didn't mind because he had a sound proofed office. We really did appreciate music-Chicago, The Doors, Crosby, Stills & Nash, Iron Butterfly and any vinyl we wanted.
