Is it fair to say you have a metal bent?

"metal bents" are always against the system 😂

I must expand my horizons. I'm still mired in the early 1970s with a few exceptions.

Nothing wrong with that lol!

I second that. 70s were good times

Of course I agree. The problem is I will make snap judgments about music instantly. Like, I have an aversion to anything that I feel is overproduced, which basically means music that could not be recreated live by say a 5 member band.

Over produced is an interesting term.. I dislike music mass produced, maybe which is sterile or chemical (perhaps even ‘fiat’).

Would you describe ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ as over produced? I think it’s an amazing song and very innovative and strange and complex. And almost impossible to perform all of it live in it’s day.

I always tend to think if it’s not able to be performed live then its not worthy.

reply

Perfect example! I was not a huge Queen fan, but that song transcended my narrow rules. There are other exceptions too.

Queen in their heyday were pretty amazing. But so was Bowie, Pink Floyd and Black Sabbath etc. some great bands to choose from - I sometimes feel like they all have a ‘best before’ and ‘rubbish after’ date though.
