Location: Michigan | I think it is more up to around 17 - I heard Chick Corea, Al Di Meola, Jean-Luc Ponty, Al Jarreau and the Songs in the Key of Life album, as well as Santana Abraxis and all the great rock from the 70s, and that was about it. |

You do know that TV dramas aren't required to be factually accurate, right?
If that were true, no one would come around to noticing
how cool 'some' of their parents era music is. And how would you grow to appreciate Coltrane and Mingus over time?
While we're on the subject, most Crime Scene science won't give results during a commercial break either.... |

Location: Triangle area, NC | I tend to disagree,
I think the music that inspires and interests us changes as we continue to grow and "mature". Not that i would say one music genre is more or less "mature" than another but music will often play different roles as we "need" it to in our lives. Not to say that you cant be a classic rock fan your whole life; and if you are, i dont believe this means you havent matured or grown. Maybe these people find a body of music that seems so consistent with their core that it makes total sense they always come back to it. Thats great.
For me, I still listen to the Beastie Boys or RunDMC every now and again and it brings back a whole lot of memories but I certainly dont seek it out or find it moves me. Kinda makes me think, "Wow I listened to this shit and thought it was mint." (havent said that ((mint)) in a while;) |
