Diki....I dont recall much scorn....pretty much the whole world listened to much of the same thing.It's a very much different scenario in today's music scene. Today everyone has their own slice of musical tastes, there is way too many choices vs years ago, computers have taken care of that & the censors have dropped the rules way down compared to years ago not only here in the USA but in countries that weren't allowed to even play music due to Communism or whatever type Govn't rules were in affect, Allowing almost anything to be aired on radio & TV these days. Plus after the early 70's more music was being produced electronically vs acoustically. Mind set is different, people are different, the whole world is different. Nothing wrong with so called new music ....99% it just ain't for my tastes.
