Re: 7 Year/7 album Theory

I used to have a friend with sort of the same theory, only it was "3 good albums".

I do have a theory that American bands tend to have shorter lifespans than British (or Australian) though. (Not necessarily solo artists, which is often as much about "celebrity" as music and yanks tend to do that really well.)

For every Grateful Dead or Parliament-Funkadelic that lasted 15+ years there's a whole lot of Velvet Undergrounds and Blue Cheers and Stooges that burned brightly but came and went in 3 or 4 years.

Hard to find US equivalents of your Stones, Floyd, Zep, Who (or AC/DC) "classic timeless supergroups."
