Sheryl Crow opens up to Billboard Magazine about her new album “100 Miles From Memphis” (it’s in stores now!)  In the interview Sheryl talks about her childhood and waking up every Saturday morning, to watch the Jackson 5 cartoon.

“Every Saturday morning, we were in front of the TV watching the Jackson 5 cartoon,” she recalls. “I grew up watching ‘American Bandstand’ and learning all the current dances . . . my parents were in a swing band. When they came home after gigs they were listening to a lot of rhythm and blues. The music that lured me was the music that came out of Memphis — a lot of Al Green, and obviously Elvis and Sun Studios.”

The entire article dives into Sheryl’s amazing career and even talks about her decision to join the all important Twitter.
