I guess for me mastering maarketing doesn't give you musical talent but it
sure does sell alot of albums. Taste in music is obviously subjective so
what I am going to say is just that my subjevtive view. To me it seems
artists such as Bob Dylan, Joni, Neil Young, Tom Waits.....etc.... almost
can't help but create MUSIC, jot down lyrics on tatered napkins and dream
about chords to play in the morning. For some reason or another these seem
to be the artists that rock me the most. Madonna rocks alot of people, they
love her music and will defend her just as much as I would Joni. It just
seems Madonna's focus is mainly on her physical image and marketing ability
not a passion for music. I have listened to Madonna alot, I personally can't
take more than a couple songs, it leaves me empty, the perfected talent show
doesn't do it for me as much as it does for others. I remember once joni
said something like, "When art and business mix everything get's f-ed up"
...call me an idealist but I have agree.
