I have been buying old and new music lately. Old artists with new releases. Jonny Lang's just released CD "Long Time Coming," Lyle Lovett "My Baby Don't Tolerate," (on vinyl) and then I found an old Ben Webster "Soulville" on Verve. I'm not much of a Hip Hop fan but it does have its place. I just don't go there.
What music have you been buying? Old or new?
I have been thinking about the music purchases I have made just in the last few weeks. I bought six of the new Dylan SACDs, one Eva Cassidy, one Jethro Tull live on the BBC, and Thirty years of Lynyrd Skynrd.
Even if I go back farther I find that most of the music is 'older' or at least older artists. I bought the new Johnny Cash LP and Nora Jones, but can you see the trend here?
I will admit, I am 42 years old and raised on AOR, but I just don't hear much new music that I find interesting. You can keep kid rock and eminem!!! I'll stick to my oldies over them.
Are you buying old music and artists or mostly newer artists and recordings, or a good mix of both? I'm not just asking the 'over the hill crowd' either, youngsters like slappy are welcome to weigh in!
