But you don’t have to like one or the other. Having come of age in the 60’s and being in the military in the 70’s you could appreciate both forms of music. Doesn’t matter if it’s Dylan, JT, Lightfoot, or Led Zeppelin. Music was totally different back then.

Listened to pop rock on the Canadian AM rocker CKLW and hard rock on WIOT. Maybe a bit prejudiced, but music was better then than today and it still sounds great.

Have a load of Lightfoot on my playlist. If you’re in a melancholy mood and a bottle of rye nearby you can get lost in his lyrics 🎶 His “Early Morning Rain” is not as well known but one of my favourites. It was covered Peter, Paul and Mary, and also by Elvis: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KP_MDIYhPH0 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6xBnivXp0fA

I absolutely agree with you.

I grew up on CKLW too. Great legacy.

Where I live now there are several retro stations. I listen often.
