Anyone here listen to music that was not made before

64. Grunge, dubstep, hiphop??? NO WAY.

If you can't give me a lead sheet (as in "fake books&quot with a melody and chords, it's not music, IMNSHMO.

Destroying vinyl records by scratching is not music to me. Don't touch my vinyls unless you're going to digitize them and burn them to CD.

I listen to stuff from the 1500s (Tallis Scholars, Anonymous Four) through the late 80s (Robert Palmer) and stuff in the 90s and Oughties from people who are now in their sixties (David Bowie, Tom Petty new CD "Hypnotic Eye", Annie Lennox "Nostalgia" new CD).

I decided rock was dead when grunge came in. I thought Nirvana was horrible and Kurt Cobain quite overrated.

The last rock band I thought was extremely competent was The Police who broke up in 1983 shortly after the Synchronicity Tour. Their last two albums, Ghost in the Machine and Synchronicity, are excellent. There's enough rhythmic complexity to make it interesting. And Sting has done some good stuff as a solo artist, though he tends to run out of ideas and get repetitive at the end of a song. Andy Summers (their guitarist) is a musical genius who has gone into jazz and has major classical chops.

My all time favorite rock bands are The Beatles, The Who, The Kinks, Queen and The Police.
