But think about
it....how often does a gem really come out?
You'll never, ever know if you don't look. If you are listening to
*tons* of new music right now i would guess you are listening to a lot of rubbish (personally speaking - no offense here!) in that mix.
That's the case no matter what decade one is in - but, of course, if you *aren't* investigating yourself, you are arguing from silence. Sad thing when the discussion is music, n'est ce pas? I'm
selective and in my heart all of the music i own is timeless. So trashing that music aside for the sake of feeling the need to hear new acts doesn't really do it for me.
I didn't trash anything (except Rush) - but you'd still be listening to something even older if at some point you didn't take the initiative to see what's out there. Again - some of need to dive for the aorta. jeff
