Which idea is explicitly stated in this passage?
Abc
There was always radio which brought us
Songs from wlac in nashville and what we
would now call
Easy listening or smooth jazz but when I
listened
Late at night with my portable (that I was so
proud of)
Tucked under my pillow
I heard nat king cole and matt dennis, june
christy and ella fitzgerald
And sometimes sarah vaughan sing black
O The poem takes place in the past.
The speaker has a deep appreciation of jazz
music
O The speaker was proud of her radio.
The speaker loves to drink coffee
coffee
Which I now drink
It was just called music
