Music today sucks!
I think a lot of the problem is the death of the youth powered garage bands that EVERY town was once loaded with. Lack if talent moving up the line.
When I went to a small college (at the time in 1975), there was live music at 4 local bars almost every night - want to guess where George Strait got his start?
College beer parties frequently had talented musicians jam away.
I have zero musical talent - can’t even play music on the radio (I wind up with talk radio). But I knew the local bands, bars and dancehalls. I wish kids today could have that experience.
