After all these years, arguing with people who pack a six ounce punch isn't much of a thrill. Claiming rock and roll is alive and well because of the Chesterfield Kings? Haha!!
And I'm not sure what the problem is...if I told my dad Big Band music was dead, he'd think I was stating the obvious. There are probably pockets of it here and there, but it's basically extinct.
I stated the obvious about country, too. How many great country albums are there, aside from greatest hits? Very few. There's Guitar Town and No Fences. That I'm aware of. Matraca Berg's two cds are wonderful but they're not really Nashville product. Therein lies the problem. There are so many producers, publishers and writers involved in Nashville music, creativity is smothered.
FD got hives from my other comment, found the first song of mine he could and posted on it. I've written some corny stuff, but this isn't it. Hell, I'd rather have co-written this than that forgettable Chesterfield Kings song. Or that bland love song by Mold Dominion.

"Defeatist Pessimists and Rose Colored Glasses Optimists are lonely companions, victims even. Both ideologies imply predestined outcomes, and therefore breed inactivity in its victims. Inaction is the only sure way to lose at anything in life. All positive action guarantees at least a fighting chance." -Brian Austin Whitney
