Generational tastes and snobbery. It’s always been better “before”.
before, the performers wrote sang live and played their instruments. not just better before
Maybe it was.

But this time, we're right.....Even my kids admit it.
Yup.
There is always good and bad music coming out of each generation. What was said about Elvis back in his early days was pretty much of the same tone as we see with just about any new stuff.
My music catalog spans from the 30's to today. There is good and bad stuff to be found just about any year you look at. I sometimes think it's strange to think that I have MP3s of music that was essentially recorded by someone "singing into a can".
Gee, I guess that’s why there are so many “classic rock” and “oldies” radio stations all over the country still getting audiences young and old playing 70’s and 80’s rock.
How many “oldie 90’s” stations are there?
