Ha. That quote in the parent literally triggered in my brain "Tom Sawyer".
At this point, I totally don't like any "prog rock" other than Rush (unless you want to count Primus).
What you write is super relatable.
I grew up listening to a lot of punk rock and older stuff including a lot of Zep, Beatles, Rush, Yes and all kinds of stuff.
I just turned 40 and I'd much rather play and listen to old jazz or country. Most of my guitar and piano playing ends up being blues, though it's fun to cover Hendrix on a piano. Hell, I'd rather listen to my kid's vaporwave stuff or, say, Neon Indian, than make another pass through Zep IV.
I play a lot of bluegrass (guitar, upright bass, banjo, dobro, etc) but can't hardly stand to listen to it. About the only stuff I can stand to listen to and work on playing at the same time is the Dead and related groups. Maybe that's like jazz but for late 20th century rock... I dunno.
