And now, a continuation of Carole King...
Tapestry came out in 1971, roughly the time when my parents were my age (age 20). When my parents were 20 years old in the 1970s, they were listening to great music such as Carole King, the Beatles (i KNOW the Beatles had split by 1971 but that's besides the point), the Rolling Stones, etc...30 years later, when I'M 20 years old, what is the music that is gracing mainstream?? Rap. Lots of rap. There is nothing good out there on the mainstream music scene. Except maybe Rufus Wainwright, but he's not exactly mainstream. Anyway. Our generation got shafted!!! Start looking on the independent music scene, at least THERE you'll find some GOOD music, like Sam Shaber.
