@bobbymackinnon Talent is not restricted by era, it is restricted by closed minds.

I agree with you, but at the same time, I still feel that the best music comes from the era in which classic rock originated from :) That's merely my opinion.

@bobbymackinnon Keep in mind that "classic rock" encompasses several decades, while the new music everybody complains about is only from the last few years. Also, there was certainly bad music back then--it's just been forgotten. However, I do think there has been a change in attitude towards the making of popular music. Like many things, it's become too... not sure how to express this... manufactured.

@Alexandria815 they were always fighting and breaking up. kind of petty actually.

[Alexandria815]

@backyardbeachbum Please to explain...???

[grovania]

can you imagine a song like this peaking at #5 today?

[backyardbeachbum]

@Alexandria815 except they basically hated each other...

[Alexandria815]

I luv how they look at each other every now and then during their songs and share the moment... And u know what else? It doesn't seem gay at all:P

This was my anthem when I was in Vietnam in 1968. I love these guys and I wish they were still together.
