“Hendrix, Cream, Led Zep, Jefferson Airplane, Zappa, Janis Joplin, Vanilla Fudge, Iron Butterfly, Doors, Steppen Wolf, Santana, etc.”

It was such a different sound from early, mid 60’s stuff that kids flocked to it, kind of like the rise of Grunge in the early 90’s after a decade of hideous 80’s keyboard bands.
The excitement may be over forever. I remember countless times gathering at friend’s houses to listen to a new album release on the stereo. It was a social event. The internet has changed that. There’s new bands out there in just about every genre that exits that are easily accessible, have a great sound and will never be heard on a radio or CD player.
As one who’s just a little older, I can honestly say - I hope never.
