There is a whole series 2here young kids raised on HipHop react to their first hearing of songs like “House of the Rising Sun” or “Unchained Melody”. The reaction is pretty pleasing to a dinosaur like me. When they hear that voice coming out of a 22year-old Eric Burden or Bobby Hatfield hitting that note it’s like they discovered a new continent.

My own grown children favor the music I grew up with and are really into bands like Journey, Boston, and Steely Dan. Which is strange to me because they weren't even born when this music was coming out for the first time.

I know there's good new music out there but so much of what passes for "pop music" these days is incredibly awful.
