So what happened to Rock? Popular music pretty much took a nosedive in recent years.
"Rock 'N Roll's been going downhill ever since Buddy Holly died."
In recent years? How old are you, sir? Pop music pretty much died out in the mid-1970s in terms of quality. As I was driving along the other day I decided to listen in to several "popular music" radio stations. To a song it was awful. A collection of exceeding dull and pedestrian lyrics backed up by a collection of overly-loud guitars and what appeared to be a computer-generated set of drums. But more importantly there was no discernible melody. Were all the tunes taken by, say 1975? It would appear so.
The sad part is today's young people think they are listening to real rock 'n roll. Apparently they have never heard the real thing or else they wouldn't support this hot and cold running crap.
