  • His posting just shows how narrow minded he really is. He fails to see how music evolves and changes over time. Just look at how the Beatles or the Stones evolved.
    He’s still (sadly) stuck in the past like that former football player guy at a high school reunion who never went on to do anything else.

    He fails to see how we are no longer limited to FM radio.
