    I don't think you understand..... when people talk about rock being dead, they're talking about new music. They aren't talking about oldies. They aren't talking about the Rolling Stones still touring into their 70's. After grunge died, and hard rock fizzled out, what replaced it? There isn't anything new at this point, and country is the closest thing currently.

    No. My point is, "it's been dead for a while." Trying to be nice.

    There is good music still being made all over the map, but it generally is not the stuff on the radio. You have to seek it out.

    Riverman is old enough to have seen Hendrix live..... and yet he's confused as to what rock is, and whether it's still going strong.

    Here are the top 40 songs in the country. Where's your rock?

    top 40? that's a fluff chart, top forty just means autographs, not music....it means kids buy those cds...not that it's the best music currently being put out...not by a long shot...The Monkees were way ahead of Hendrix in the charts....

    top 40 is basically for 14 year olds.

    some good music cracks it occasionally, but for the most part it is cheesy bubblegum malarkey.

    No music collection would be complete without Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys. They were among the first to go electric, they were all, without exception top notch musicians, they were one of the first white bands to mix country, western, jazz, swing and rock 'n roll. They worked their asses off playing everywhere and then some. If their music doesn't get your feet jumping, then you're probably dead. Don't knock it till you have tried it. Asleep At The Wheel are worthy successors. And Steve Earle is an effung genius.......
