Excellent.
I remember listening to my mothers' old 78's, Duke Ellington and Benny Goodman, along with her collection of gospel music in between one brother's Hendrix and the Mahavishnu Orchestra, my other brother's Miles Davis and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young and my own tennybopper collection of the Jackson Five. It was just good music.
Queen?
QUEEN?
Hey, there are some bands who's music I think will always be popular. Led Zeppelin, Stones, Beatles. Queen, however?
Some of the music today is so plain, compared to the classic oldies.
Slappy, Led Zeppelin, Stones, and the Beatles are great...and so is Queen.
A lot of my, well, not favorite, but songs with a 'comfy' feeling, are from when I was a lad, and my parents listened to the radio.
Slappy, that's exactly what I thought when I read that. Queen? They were good, but definitely not up there with the Beatles or Zeppelin.
My kids listen to Led Zep, Jimi, Beatles... and the Ramones and the Clash.
Good boys they are.
T'other day with them in the car I started to play Sheer Heart Attack... they thought at first it was Kiss...
Sheer Hear Attack rocks....kids know what's fake, and what's being forced down their eardrums. There has not been a proper revolution in music since punk. Grunge was just a flash in the pan. Rap is just a pose. Quadrophenia might just be the best teenage angst album ever recorded. Just my opinion. My fave Clash albums are the first one, and London Calling.
Good music is timeless and priceless.

Which is why I cherish my Hanson cd.
