I loved Budweiser songs.

It was 1967-68, and I went to bed most evenings those summers listening to Harry Caray and Jack Buck on KMOX, broadcasting the games of the St. Louis Cardinals.

My brother and I would go down to our bedroom in the basement, turn on the transistor radio, and fade off listening to those magical voices. And the Budweiser songs, of course. I’m not even sure we knew they were advertising beer. They were just the songs of the Cardinals.

Some people like to fall asleep to complete silence. Me? I’ve always liked a little noise — especially the sound of a ballgame. I think it goes back to 617 Reid Road in Neosho and the voices of Caray and Buck.

How about you? What do you remember falling asleep to? Music? TV? Radio?
