I love music and have listened to it all my life. Mostly current popular stuff. Over time I found that the music industry was becoming formulaic and no longer resonated with me. It seems it had lost it’s soul and was used more for marketing clothing lines or a “scent”. I still listen to new music, new for me anyway, but I find it in the past, before I was born. Lately I’ve been listening to Louis Prima non-stop. Man that guy had charisma, was funny, and he could sing and play that trumpet like nobody. I try to keep politics out of my music but there are great political songs as well. “Wanted Man” - Manhattan Transfer; “There is no Time” - Lou Reed, for example. I agree that there are always musical nuggets of gold to find in any generation, if you dig around a little. Reminds me of the Paul Simon line “Every generation throws a hero up the pop charts”. I have nothing against the new music, I just don’t pursue it anymore. All the best.
