"There is plenty of music being produced every year that is as good or even better than the Beatles ,Stones,Who, etc... IMHO "
IF those are one's reference artists, it's no surprise no others would be deemed as good or better.
Doesn't mean those who came after suck though. Maybe only in comparison?
WHere are the new BEatles?
Stones?
Zeppelin?
Bach?
Chuck Berry?
Johnny Cash?
Those ships have sailed. What's come after may bear some comparison but is not the same.
So if your looking for new artists to fill the void left by other older classic acts, you will have a long wait.
Doesn;t mean the new music sucks though. Just more of a challenge than ever though perhaps to tread new ground. Many do it quite well if perhaps not to the same extent or scale or volume of output as some big names from the past.
THere will probably be lots of BEatles lovers 100 years from now, just like there are many who still appreciate Bach or Mozart today, but I doubt they will still be first in most peoples hearts by then.
