skool

the more i listen to old skool and no skool music, the more contemporary music depresses me.

geez -- people are still discoverng:
stevie wonder
billie holiday
sarah vaughan
wilson picket
nancy wilson
dionne warwick
the gap band
sam cooke
the staple singers
shirley bassey
van morrison
the who
led zepplin
nina simone
commodores
prince
...and others in these classes

who do peeps have to pick from today:
brittney spears?
justine timberlake?
pussycat dolls?

i sometimes feel sorry for the music of today and for those who listen to it.

will today's music be pined for 30-40 years from now? does it have life?

ekkk --

(this rant brought to you by a question -- a question from someone only 3 years younger than me who has never ventured past lead categories of their local record store...)

sigh!!!!!
