Decent enough group. I know I have 2 45’s from the 60’s in my collection but can’t remember what they are. As for other cuts? Dondub did not do disco!👹 if I wanted to dance, and I did, it was James Brown, Soul roll and rockin’ daddy blues. I was talking to a youngster once about music. He was saying how great Wilson Phillips was and how he would be listening to them the rest of his life. I told him "probably true" but no new generation would be. Pop music imprints on a younger age group and then moves on to new stuff for a next age cohort. Except, of course, there is a very small amount of work that transcends the common. Mozart and Beethoven did. Schmitenmeyer had his following in his day but who remembers him today. One of my nieces said this to me years ago:”Uncle Don, we have to listen to our music to be culturally relevant with our peers, but your music is way better”! I have 2 nephews that played guitar and they feasted on my British Invasion vinyl. Stones, Kinks, Who, Zep, Cream, Yardbirds, Jeff Beck etc. One was playing bass in a couple bands but everything closed up last year.

I dunno. music is just like everything else. 90% of it sucks. that goes for every genre, and every period. it is just how it is. there are people that hate country. but 10% of it is good. there are people that hate EDM. but 10% of it is good. there are people that hate the blues. but 10% of it is good. you just have to be in the right space for it. and here is what the problem is. it takes a pretty durable spine to be in the right space for death metal, break beat, ambient, and power electronics.
