Well, that’s it. As you can see, I’m pretty much and Old School kinda guy. Probably because there is so little of what I hear today that I can call music. Good music, at least. No disrespect to today’s artists. There are some really talented people out there, still trying to preserve music in its purest sense. But then again, everyone’s interpretation is different, so who am I to say what is and isn’t?
I just know what I like to hear and the work that is put in to create it.
