Location: Round Rock, TX | I just don't buy the "It was better then and crap now" argument at all. Yeah MTV sucks, but as I remember it, I liked about one band in twenty on American Bandstand. I have a ton of music from the 60's and 70's that has stood the test of time very well, but I also have a lot of great music from the last 5 years and all the years in between - and all of it was produced in studios and released/distributed by record companies.
And you find it like you always did. A friend turns you on to it, or you hear it on that one cool radio station in town (or on the satellite) that doesn't play top-40 dreck (does anybody here remember how hideous most of the FM dial was in the early 70's? I do.)
if we'll drag our creakin' bones, backs and butts out of these comfortable chairs and lift up out tired old heads, we'll find some great new music - and we won't ever grow old and we won't ever die.
Now that I think about it, what we need is a thread listing our favorite artists of this century. After all we're all friends here, sorta... |
