I'm generally a fan of all genres, but the complexity and thoughfullness you hear in classic rock songs for example is nothing like you hear these days - EXCEPT, these songs charting at the moment are doing so (and selling crazily quickly) because the production has got better (in my opinion!)

There's nothing really wrong with any generation of music in my opinion, as they've all had good and bad material. Really, I'd say that now is a theoretically better time. No matter how you feel about the quality between generation, there's far more genres and albums to consume now than what there were before. There's a lot more potential for music now than there ever was, and potential will just increase as generations move on. It's just the bands that use this potential that you should look out for. There are some great albums from the 2000's that trump some of the best of the 70's or 80's or whatever generation you want to pick (Before Today, anyone? Or Horses in the Sky? You really just have to look.)

EDIT: I didn't realize that what I said was basically said before. I don't want to seem redundant. I should skim better. :/

Interesting points, though.

That only deals with listening to (consuming) music. That doesn't address whether or not music today better or worse than it use to be. So I agree it is a better time for people being into music. Not that it's a better time for music being produce.

That the sad part, there is so much potential yet so much crap.

Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra - Horses In The Sky
I don't know if that is the album you had in mind. I looked it up on title track youtube and I saw a live performance of it. You gotta be kinding me. That trumps nothing.

Before Today
The song "Bright Lit Blue Skies" is a cover song from '66 how is that an example of today's music?

Every generation has its own music i suppose, good and bad.

I sometimes wish i was around back in the Roaring 20s or in the 50s when rock started out.

You're probably aware, but young Mr. Ramsey is going on tour soon:

Nashville isn't too far from you. Or you could come back to Northern Kentucky for a visit and see him in Covington.

^^^ Yeah. I wish that I could see him again so soon but traveling far enough only means that more money is needed for gas and a motel room and right now, I'm not able to get away from work just yet either, but as soon as he is back in my neck of the woods, I hope to be there. I love him so much and I can't wait to get his first ever album on September 20th.

God bless you and him always!!!

Holly

P.S. When I saw him earlier this year, I purchased the VIP package which is something that I've never done before with any other singer and so I hope that makes up for my inability to go on another "Mase Chase" so soon, not to mention the fact that I was five years late in even knowing him at all. Right here is my clip of his Q&A moment during his VIP gathering. I still can't believe that I had the courage to speak to him at all. I was so nervous. That is me with the blond head and my first moment of calling out to him starts at the 3:28 mark. Two of my questions were answered. I am the one who asked him online what is the most unusual thing has he ever been asked to sign so far for a fan. Near the end of the clip, I ask him who comes up with the concepts for his videos.
