Thread: How cool is this?

There are some wonderful acts like Tedeschi/Trucks Band and Robert Randolph and the Family Band that I'll listen to.

Most record producers are like politicians---they think they know what is best for us so they try to cram their crap down our throats. The crap they think we want is Rap/Hip Hop/ Top 40 Pop Country. No thanks. I still search Amazon for artists and albums I haven't heard in 40 years. Spotify keeps my wife and I on the same page.

Back in them days Mickey Gilly was my favorite. You live in Kentucky and don't like Country.?

Best Era in Music Ever! Skynryd, Seger, Steve Miller, Zeppelin, REO Speedwagon, Kansas, the Who Stones, CCR, Allman Brothers, Marshall Tucker Band, the Band, Atlanta Rythym Section, Blackfoot. Ozark Mountain Daredevils, etc, etc, etc.

I'm from the Motown era but I listened to classic rock a lot when I was hanging out with the heads I worked with. Foghat, CCR, Stones, Aero, and quite a few more. Temptations, four tops, spinners, smokey, ojays, whispers, and more than I can name here. Now I'm listening to AWB and there old members that formed the group called 360 the majority of the time.

All good folks....but it (rock & roll) all started back in my day in the 50's & 60's.....course, I do like some of the later years also...I finished High School in 1956....we liked The Platters, The Chordettes, The Coasters, Chuck Berry, Fats Domino, Elvis, The Boxtops, James Brown, Glady's Knight, Conway Twitty, Johnny Mathis, Bo Diddley, Carl Perkins, Beach Boys, The Byrds, Smoky Robinson & the Miracles, Blood, Sweat & Tears, Marvin Gaye, Earth, Wind & Fire just to name a few.....my era pushed us out of the 40's music of the big bands like Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey, etc....

I really like Motown as well, Chaunc. Sam Cook was excellent as well, lots of good stuff there.

My dad brought me up the same way. Last year I got to see David Gilmour, Carlos Santana, Journey, and The Doobie Brothers!
