But there is a whole alternative universe of GREAT music on Spotify. Look for genres like: Roots Rock - Combines rock with folk, blues, and country influences, often with an electric edge.

You are absolutely right. Around 1989 I discovered a radio station out of Tampa, WMNF, who is left of Stalin on the radio dial but played artists I did not know existed: Robert Earl Keen, Lucinda Williams, etc... Unfortunately, when they blamed America for 9/11, they ceased to exist for me.

Later, I started streaming stations on a now defunct music service and heard a whole new world of music. There was a streaming station out of Wheeling, WV that had a great playlist. Unfortunately, it changed to a sports format.

Great music is still out there. You just have to hunt for it.

Springfield revealed at one time that men scared her, IOW She was afraid of men.

Sounds like someone who was horribly abused by a male authority figure early in her life. :-(
