I took a brief listen to your “Child in Time” and got to wondering: so this is what appeals to you. Sir, what is it that you like about this “song”? Surely, it’s not the melody since there is no recognizable melody to be heard. Deep, hidden meaning in the lyrics? To discern that would require more patience than I have. About 60 seconds was all I could take.
And this seems to be typical of post-1970s popular music.
One has to also wonder: are all the songwriters dead?
I love that song, Child in Time, and know that most people hate it. It gives me pleasure when my Mexican neighbors keep me up all night with their accordion music. I’ll wait until the family is gone for the day, 7:45 am, turn the volume up, open the windows and doors, and blast that song until things start vibrating off their shelves and the windows distort anything on the other side.
I’ll follow it up with another of my favorites, Stevie Ray Vaughan’s Little Wing, then Ted Nugent followed by Metalica.
It doesn’t get any better than that.
I saw Deep Purple at the Hollywood Bowel in the 70s with the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra, Awesome.
