But how do you know that what sounds good today *is* gonna sound good ten
years from now? Does this mean you sidestep everything that includes any sort
of trendy touches, be they in instrumentation or production value? That would
be a bummer. That, to me, eliminates some really great music. Like Beck and
Nirvana, to name two. (Likely bad examples for this *country* discussion, but
what the hell.) Maybe the two best, most important rock artists of the decade
who owe plenty in sound to the decade. Does that mean they aren't great? I
don't think so.
I'm curious to know what you think about retro acts like Wayne Hancock and the
Derailers. Do you like 'em? Would you call them timeless?
Just jawin',
