Transformation of music

[timj219]

Decembrists are one of my favorites too. I credit my kids with keeping me up to date with good new music. Without them I might just stick with what I know. Apart from my kids I find the best place for discovering new music is the local college station. You never know what you'll get when you tune in - garbage or greatness - but it's something new all the time and only a little of it is top 40 crap.

I don't much hear a whole lot that I like in a countdown...especially on a radio where people are casting their votes based on bandwagon judgement. It's cool that you take to music that your children listen to because I find that I enjoy so many bands that my parents used to listen to in the 60's and 70's...I still think the overall quality of music was far superior then...
