Spot on. It's not remotely generational either, there is very little of worth in the mainstream these days. Genuine creativity isn't nurtured, but actively
discouraged because it does not bring a quick return unlike the aural toilet paper for the terminally moronic that masquerades as music today. For example, the younger Van Morrison is just one example of an artist who had talent and who's potential was realised, respected and invested in long term. It couldn't happen these days. If the music Industry was pretty horrible in the golden period, when there were some enlightened souls around, what about these days ? That feckin' eejit Cowell and his minions of evil distilled have taken us into the bastard love child of Tin Pan Alley and Bobby Soxers in Cyberspace. These modern 'Indy' dudes are bereft of talent, imagination and vision. The very best of them ( contradiction in terms I know ) are a vapid imitation of something done before and far better. Pete Doherty ? Gimme a fucking break. Howling Wolf, Jerry Lee, Woody, Bob, Jim, Iggy and so many more. He and his chums tedious named after utility services and the like should be given hard labour under the Trades Descriptions Act. Om shanti ! :-).
