Each generation thinks that the music they grew up listening to was the real stuff, and contemporary music is meaningless and stupid, just as how each generation (when they hit middle-age) think that the youth are disillusioned. It happened with blues, jazz, Rn'B (and I don't mean what Rn'B has now become), rock, hard rock, metal, rap etc.etc. and will continue to be such with Nu Metal and possibly most if not all subsequent forms of music.

Where did i say contempporary music is meaningless and stupid ? I hope to be rocking on the floor well into my 80s if i live that long.
Realise that each genre hits a peak at some point in time, it gets stale afterwards. The ignorant refuse to accept this and cling on...the progressive discover new avenues and start the ride again & again....Something i seriously hope happens here, with the internet with it's ways to broaden one's musical horizons.
When i say get the best music you want the stuff that came out beofre it hit that peak. Rock hit its peak in the late 70s..stuff before it is what built it. Stuff coming after it with very few exceptions is all tried & done. People that are ignorant of what came before don't realise this.
That is why i said read.... about the history of Rock from various sources, listen several times to the main players..then try listening to what you thought was good. I find that list changes for me every few years as genres come & go.
Taste can't be taught, you have to work at it.
I'm listening to some James Brown from the 60s & 70s, the amazing thing is that it *still* sounds great even today.

Different strokes for different folks U say... not that all the contemporary music is shit... but I just can't get used to the excessive noise. I'm just 18 and most of my peers lik bands lik Linkin Park etc... Apart frm a few songs, I don't like the new bands. Its only bass mixed with loads of guitar and some shouting.
