Dude! (or dudette!) Are you saying if the Beatles got together (yah, I know 1/2 of them are dead, but just supposin') you wouldn't buy a new album...er...CD?? Just because they were liberal?

And Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd HAD politics? Whoa.... and here I though all those "music enhancing" chemicals were supposed to make one be "inside" the music and understand all the complexities? (Hey, it worked for Traffic's "John Barleycorn Must Die" and The Lord of the Rings!)

I guess my point is that I think one's convictions, past a certain age, can not (hopefully) be influenced by entertainers.

lol....As for The Beatles, "No, I wouldn't buy a new album from them."

I've hated them from day one.  But I have perfect pitch and since The Beatles insisted on singing out of tune 75% of the time, they sound like fingernails on a chalk board to me.

Plus, counterpoint is pretty important to my musical tastes and since they never mastered it, I find their music flat and boring: nursery songs with drums.  And they were pretty sloppy as an ensemble.

But that's all just personal taste.

As for the politics of Zeppelin and Floyd, I was speaking hypothetically.
