Yes, there’s easier access to a wider area of info today
which could make it more unbelievable that The Beatles
hadn’t crossed this person’s radar - knowingly. And that’s the key.
Some people are (and enjoy) being insular in their interests and
that can be a very good thing - especially if they are of the creative type.
Of course, we know nearly nothing about this person that this man is talking about,
so we can’t say what her personality is, but not caring to actively seek
out some old rock while she’s an energetic young person tells me that
there’s hope in the creative minds of young people.

In my case, of course Ellington or Whiteman could be a very accurate comparison.
Sinatra would’ve been barely a teenager. Crosby would’ve been in his mid-20s and
actually would’ve just been invited to join Whiteman’s band.
