Lasts like bad breath..............

I like one JB song. Can't remember the name, but he says "that girl could sing..." Even that's a vapid, repetitive song... As a fan of 50's muisic, his cover of "Stay" is as appealing as a Buffett song.

Jim, my point is not a deference, it's the amnesia we have about the truly great early 70's trendsetters like Budgie, Thin Lizzy, etc.


I certainly like my share of what others would call, for lack of a better term, "crap". But for crying out loud, I'll tell you deference...

Bob freakin Dylan? Springsteen? Petty? J.C. Mellonhead? (he does have a good tune or two). These are just OK mainstream stuff. They're treated like gods. Half the time they can't carry a tune.

In the absence of prog and fusion and jazz and funk, give me a good power pop tune over that stuff any day of the week (and twice on Sunday).
