Nothing worthwhile

My interest in R&R ended about the middle 1970s. The glory years of rock were from about 1967-1974 or so. Hate to sound like an old shyte, but if I want to hear good rock I'll pull up music from that era. It never gets old.

I heard this young lady a few years ago when she opened for another group. I have loved her ever since. Very upbeat, rock-like, some country flair, a little bluesy. Makes me want to sing along every time.

For derivative music, like Greta, why bother? Just get the original Zep stuff.

Ciara? NFW, that is crap. Here is the Rock n' Roll bar:

There are lots of articles online saying rock and roll will make a comeback (soon), and other articles saying rock is dead. Welcome to the internet.

I can’t think of a current rock group. Unfortunately there’s a lot of synthetic music these days, and that won’t go away. Actual instruments and unmodified vocals are more and more rare.

I was recently recalling that the Stones put out their last great album, and possibly their best, "Exile on Main Street," 50 years ago. Their own sound was derivative of musicians like Howlin' Wolf, Muddy Waters and Fred McDowell.

I loved the Stones of 50 years ago. Would I pay to see them now? Nah. "You can't go home again."

Can't say I'm a big Stones fan, but their early catalog is filled with gems. I haven't paid to see any big concerts, but have been to a few in past 20 years. Yeah, I'm old.

+1 Sirius XM and Pandora keep me going when I want to hear R&R. Much of what followed in the late 70s and beyond isn't even R&R. I would not include Disco, Rap, or much of the head-banging music as real R&R. That isn't to say there hasn't been some good music in the past few decades but it just isn't R&R.

Also don't forget the late 50s and early 60s with R&R "founding fathers" like Carl Perkins, Chuck Berry, Little Richard, some of the early styles of Rockabilly, etc.


Cheers!

54321 and So Hott by Buckcherry.
California Dreamin' by Dirty Honey.
Wait a Minute My Girl and Shotgun Blues by Volbeat.
Mars Simula by Chevelle.

Most of the people I know that are my age still listen to '70s, '80s, and '90s rock / hard rock. I'm one of the few who will listen to the new rock station on the radio.

Started watching "Reacher" last night and this came on. She's a country singer but this is at least country rock. Jade Jackson, "Good Time Gone"

I'm not the world's biggest Guns N' Roses fan by any means, but this song (released in 2021) sounds as good as almost any track from their 1987 debut album...

Playing for Change

These are a series of music videos performed from around the world. The artists are mostly unknown from outside of our country to the famous ones who have either wrote the songs or participated with the original band.
I enjoy these music videos since I find them uplifting in a world of chaos.

The album is called Mammoth WVH. The WVH stands for Wolfgang Van Halen who is the young son of Eddie Van Halen and Valerie Bertinelli. This entire album is his. He performs all instruments and vocals on the album. He and his band are on tour with this album. This video shares some of his talent and great sense of humor.
