There are 1,000 songwriters in Nashville, and I don’t think that is an exaggeration.I suspect that at least half of them have as much talent as this supporter of Stalinist terror who composed an anthem to the abolition of private property. How many of the 1,000 do you know, admire and listen to? Who decides for you what to listen to? Wasn’t another Communist “folk rock” hero Dean Reed talented? Do you listen to him? Who does?

I am not disputing what you say, just that talent and worldview have no correlation.

I had never heard of Dean Reed before, but it sounds like he was never successful in the U.S. He moved to East Germany and still filed tax returns to the IRS? What a tool.
