Music today sucks!

In the very late 70s (I think it was), I went to the bank and borrowed $6000C ....... to buy my third stereo system. I had to get a co-signer; I was in my late twenties..
I spent it all on electronics.
The speakers I paid cash for.
In about 2018, I played it for the last time and unplugged it for good.
It's still occupying floor-space in my living room, but all the cabling has been yanked.
I gave all my 60s/70's/and even the 80s records to my son, who, coming 37 in a few days, seems to be really enjoying them.

I remember in about the early 80s, a local rock-station organized a "simulcast", the first one in Winnipeg, for, The Who . I remember hosting a party for this in my tiny little home. We watched them on the TV, while cranking the FM audio.
There was liquor involved, and weed, and scantily-clad young ladies. And we rocked the neighborhood; and not just me, the entire neighborhood was rocking it.
The party eventually grew so large, it spilled outside into our fully fenced yard, and to points beyond. I only invited a handful of people. But it seems each of them invited a handful, and so on.
I managed to not get too drunk.
But the clean-up was horrendous.
That was the first, last, and only bash I ever hosted, and it will never be repeated.

I very seldomly listen to music anymore; but if I do, it will be instrumental only and usually long-hair type. Lyrics remain in my head, sometimes for days, a constant distraction.
