I'd go for A. I haven't heard much interesting music from this decade, and if it got cut off now I'd have to wait ages to have anything interesting to listen to. For at least the first few weeks there'd be nothing whatsoever to listen to.
It's only knock and knowall, but I like it...

Definately "A". There is so much music in the last 100 years that I have yet to hear, that I want to hear, and that I love to hear, it would last more than 100 years. So I go with "A."

Aw for heaven's sake I didn't say "Media-driven music from the next 100 years".    I can only imagine what King Crimson's going to do next...  I may be one of the few who thinks their 2000+ material is among the most brilliant...

A) is a very good option, you already have plenty unbelievable music to hear.

but I would choose B), why ?

- You still have a chance old groups reunite (It would be odd but it's possible)

- Every time more and more music is made, not all of it reaches us. If I would live 100 years, I would take the time to search for the good music there is in the underground scene. Instead of listening to the sh*tty pop that is and will be dominating the world wide scene.

- You said that artists will be influenced by the past music, then they coud be inspierd to do their music as an analogy of the old one. I'm sure something interesting would come out. Something worthy to listen to. Or simply do covers. jejeje. Do covers count as old music ??

- Besides, I'm hopeful that music of the next hundrer years (because I'm relatively young) will be as marvelous as it was in the last 100 years

- Who could predict that prog rock was going to appear !? did any of you old men !? or that any of what happened was going to happen ! We are children of our time ! none of un can think of anything different of what we have lived.

- We are to make the music that's going to be heard in the next hundred years !!! If I'm to hear what's going to be maide, then I'll make my own music !!ç

(This sounded very Thick as a Brick to me. jejeje)

 

 

So you ride yourselves over the fields
and you make all your animal deals
and your wise men don't know how it feels
to be thick as a brick.

 I suspect in the next hundred years there will be another golden era of music like 1967-1976 . Prog wasn't the only style that's best days were behind it by 1977. Just consider that KC and the Sunshine Band were the hottest act of that year and you realise that other genres were also in trouble. I suspect this new golden era will be quite differnt to the last one and i am quite curious as to how such an era would shape up. But I might have to wait 70 years before it gets going !

So 70 years waiting and not being able to play Love Beach is a high price to pay to see in the next golden age. If I can't play Love Beach if  I  could at least look at the cover and have the lyric sheet then I could wait those 70 years.Big smile
How wonderful to be so profound

If you wait 70 years without knowing of that album, and you heard it then, you would experience it again ... for the first time. Is that worth waiting for. I personally haven't listened to it.
