I don't profess to know anything about music history. I know what I
lived through, what I enjoyed, who I admired, and who I put on replay.
I will never see or hear music like the music of the sixties again.
That was my life. And some of the icons are still around. Its freaking
amazing. Except for Jim Morrison - Mr. Mojo Rising, and a few others
including Janis Joplin....we are still privileged to have these legends
still around. Who will be another Clapton, or Dylan? Who will form a
group like the Stones, or will we ever have another Beatlemania? The
sixties was a wonderful time for music. Music with poetry and prose and
words that made you feel something. Music that made you think and feel.
Music with a political flair, music with a conscious. It was good.
Very, very good. It was the time to be a teenager. A time to remember.
But it did not last forever as Billy Joel said....because THEN CAME
DISCO. Enough said.
All Good Things
