My generation

I've listened to new music since I was a 2 year old kid tuning in my parents radio to hear music I liked, the new sound, the new style, the new beat. In the 50 years since then I've striven to listen to something new each week, each month, each year. Since 1971 a year has not passed when I haven't increased my collection with something new: a new artist or a new release from an old artist - a new sound, a new style, a new beat. I am never sated, ever hungry for something new to whet my appetite, to broaden my experience, to expand my appreciation for the art of making music with a new sound, a new style, a new beat. The day I stop searching for new music will be the day they nail the lid down on my coffin, but they'd better not hammer with any rhythm or I'll never rest.
