Have you had enough of Classic Rock?

And just think, by the time we hit the nursing home, instead of Slim Whitman, they'll be playing Zep for us. (Pop culture reference there to Mars Attacks). They have some really good rules in these homes- like, if you've heard someone go into a rant you've heard before, you raise your hand. Also, if somebody drops dead next to you, you raise your hand. A friend said an oldster she knew had that experience, raised her hand, and when the attendant came over to see whether the oldster who plunked face down on the table still had a pulse, the hand-raiser whispered "Can I have her pudding?"
Sometimes, life is funny. 

One of the problems is that “Classic Rock” to some is a boing redundant playlist from FM radio staiona all subscribing to the same source playing on a loop.

For those who did not live back then and were not exposed to the breadth and depth of the talent that emerged, I would offer a number of albums to listen to end to end and experience albums where all of the tracks were good and many bordered on great.

Traffic - Low Spark of High Heeled Boys
Jethro Tull - Aqualung
Big Brother and the Holding Company - Cheap Thrills

There are SO many more, but those are proffered to open some doors and eyes to how good it was to be into music back then, not to mention with decent equipment for the times

I do get tired of certain classic rock songs but then rediscover them again several years later with a different setup that make them sound fresh again. I especially appreciate some classic rock as compared to some newer popular music that became a hit because some exec decided they could sell records with the hook even though the band sucked. (tons of those)  Bands like Queen, Styx and other classic rock bands rightfully deserve their place as greats because they broke the mold in many ways (ie. Bohemian Rhapsody)   I am trying o now discover music that I did not know about before that gives me that same emotional response. 
I am amazed at how some old metal still gives me that excitement while others seems absolutely juvenile even though it was my jam in high school.  lol

Gene3x,

Try listening to “Stepping Out”, Live Cream Vol II.  So many layers of sound, why many are enthralled with Clapton and Bruce.

It's amazing how many of my seniors (17-18 years old) are still steeped in classic rock. Maybe because the Gen X and Baby Boomer generations are i such positions that they can use those tunes in all sorts of media consumed by the younger generations, but maybe also because many of those classic rock tunes have a simple staying power than much of Gen Z knows is missing from the 21 Savages and Cardi B's of today.
