"Maybe best to think of it this way... Without what the 50's, 60's and 70's gave us as a "base", what would today's musical trends be?? 
Like them or loathe them, a lot of groups since then, say they got their inspiration from those major players of those decades.
So enjoy in what I heard as I grew up as a child, with superb music to latch on to. | |||

"pete doherty = dickhead....agreed but the musicle talent can not be argued with, one of the gr8est lyracist's ever, the 2 libertines album's are both 2 of the greatest albums of the last 20 years....and hold there own against any era, babyshambles album's and solo have both been criticly acclaimed....and grahme coxon was guitar on his solo album, and that speaks volumes....but he is a total wanker ha ha | |||

" Spot on !! - the dont actually make MUSIC nowadays !! rip = music i suppose x" That to a certain degree is unfair! There is much to be said, in a negative way, for all the formulaic, manufactured "tat" that comes out today for the mainstay of the buying public, that is, the younger age groups. But there is a wealth of other, damn good music, that does exist, but which, unfortunately doesn't get the attention and more importantly, the airplay it all deserves. And different people have different choices or musical tastes. Mine is quite eclectic. So far today (Sat) I have listened to music on BBC Radio's 1, 2, & 3, Classic FM; Absolute Radio, and through this evening, Kiss 100. Through the night, I'll record via my Freeview box, Armin van Buuren's "State of Trance". Tomorrow, I'll listen to all the same stations as today, plus Magic FM and Radio 4. Radio is subjective; just move the dial from time to time; you'd be amazed what you can hear! | |||

"Music - Before - Computers.. when we made music with instruments "It might sound odd, but music is still made with instruments these days; yes, it may be technologically more advanced, but it is still music. Yes, I share a little of what you say; I was raised with classical music in my life; I later went on to love singing Choral Music (thanks to being educated in Fife!) and later performed across the UK & Europe. But I still have a love of music in other forms. Music today is actually very good; give it a try! | |||

"Yes, there is the tendency for computerisation to permeate a lot of modern genres. But with my more formal musical background, I can listen to how some of today's modern DJ's, can juggle modern tracks with ease; yes, even the digitalised music and "create" perfect harmonies, that are worthy of being almost as good as the best Classical & Choral composers! Yes, back when Handel, Mozart et all created their styles, people hated them too. Almost as if to say, "it doesn't sound like the old days!" Now see how popular they are! | |||
