The thing is, now there’s so much old music that I’ve become aware of that I wasn’t even aware of when it was made.
Same here - discovered a trove of music on Newsgroups some years ago and have discovered more “new” stuff than I had ever imagined was out there.
It’s because pretty much since the early 90’s and decades earlier all the “new music” sucks.
Check out Blackberry Smoke. Cross between Black Crowes, Skynyrd, Allman Bros.
I had no idea CW McCall had more then one song. Some are funny and some are real tear jerkers.
Then there are so many Do-Wop artists I had never heard of.
Searching out new music is fun.
I turned thirty years old in 1988, and I can say that there wasn’t a single band or song that came out in the early 1990’s that I liked. I am a throw-back to the 1960’s through the 1980’s music fan.
