Reading this rather pathetic post makes me wonder if some things never change.

A rock musician saying "I hate the blues," is like a painter saying "I hate blue," a chef saying "I hate bluefish". Like a punk saying "I hate rock music".


What's your point? That we should all conform?

An artist can like or dislike whatever music/colour he wants.

Colin Newman doesn't like rock'n'roll. I do. It makes no difference to my appreciation of Wire.

And if Julian Cope doesn't like the blues, well so what?

Still, who does Cope think he is?

Expressing an opinion on his own website. What a wanker, eh.

I love Blue Cheer. I loved Blue Cheer in the 80s, more than 5 years before JC thinks anyone loved Blue Cheer.


Get you.

Julian Cope makes music I have never given a shit about and he doesn't know what he's talking about when he writes about rock music.




I don't mean to sound rude, but why don't you fuck off from his website then?
