Rock & Rant

What is it with rock & roll?

What is the problem?

Why is there no real growth?

How can songs written 40 years ago still be popular music?

In the first half of this century, every half-dozen years, a new popular style. Something truly new. New melodic forms. New rhythms.

Last half of the 20th century, nothing but rock. Same chords. Same instrumentation. Same beat. Same vocal style.

When are we going to have a true revolution in popular music?
