Yeah, theres lots of great old music that it’s new at the same time. And it comes with the perspective of time, one has the ability to see how it aged. The most im impressed with is forgotten music that has aged very well and feels ever more relevant; that is music with essence. Sometimes despite being a bad recording it still moves the needle in the positive direction. In modern music the newness factor sometimes obscures the essence and one is not able to fully asses it at the present moment.
- nemo44x 7y agoAgreed. To me it’s fascinating to hear people singing about the same themes and problems of their day. Or even breaking the assumption that everything was simpler or more pure. Hearing Robert Johnson singing about squeezing his lemon and quipping (yeah that’s what I’m talking about) is pretty funny. Or Hank Williams just reminiscing about going out, getting loaded with his girl, grabbing some after bar food, and causing a ruckus everywhere they go. These are popular themes in pop music of today.
