kev- ah yes, the "wanna jam?"
i'm sensing an "art vs.craft" side debate a'brewing.
i've been in a few of those (recently), sort of
the musician's equivolent of "prog, not prog".
using the beatles as a prime example-
john was likely the least musically proficient member,
but was probably the most artistic.
most of john's catalog holds up well after 30 years,
much of paul's doesn't.
"ebony and ivory" comes to mind.
much of the time in rock, it's an art student at the core-
lennon, jim morrison, pete townshend, david byrne...
what say you ?
