....... WILL TAKE OVER.. ❓
???? Had the privilege to see a legend last night...Graham Nash.❗
This above wrote Dan Steel in the Concert thread just now.
I started thinking,..have had that idea before,too.
Think all these great artists.......
◾The Rolling Stones.
◾ David Bowie.
◾ Rod Stewart
◾ Paul McCartney.
◾ Mark Knopfler of Dire Straits.
◾ Bryan Adams.
◾ Elton John.
◾ Joe Cocker.
◾ Eric Clapton.
◾ Lionel Richie.
◾ Stevie Wonder.
◾ Paul Simon.
◾ Kenny Rogers.
◾ James Ingram
◾ Tina Turner
◾ Billy Joel.
◾ Michael Jackson.
◾ Diana Ross.
◾ Dionne Warwick.
◾ Willie Nelson.
◾ Al Jarreau.
◾ Bruce Springsteen.
◾ Kenny Loggins.
◾ Steve Perry.
◾ Daryl Hall.
◾ Huey Lewis.
◾ Cyndi Lauper
◾ Kim Carnes.
◾ Bob Dylan.
◾ Ray Charles.
◾ Harry Belafonte.
◾ Lindsey Buckingham.
◾ Bob Geldof.
◾ Bill Gibson.
◾ Chris Hayes.
◾ Waylon Jennings.
◾ Bette Midler.
◾ John Oates.
◾ Smokey Robinson.
◾ Aretha Franklin.
◾ Phil Collins.
◾ Ray Cooper.
◾ john Illsley.
◾ Midge Ure.
◾ Red Dwight.
◾ Howard Jones.
◾ Niel Young.
◾ Gun’s & Roses.
◾ AC/DC.
◾ Led Zeppelin.
◾ John Fogerty.
◾ Cher.
◾ Queen.
etc,etc,etc……..
All of these have played for decades,from at least 1960 onwards.
True artists and musicians,who have gone the long way and learned their "profession" from the ground and up,and grown through experience. Played at small clubs,worn their own loudspeakers and amplifiers....learned to have audience contact and slowly grown as an artist and human.
Most of them operate even today in different ways,some are out on their farewell-tour.....Elton John,Paul Simon etc.
Cher is coming soon with a new album.!
They are all also at least 60-75 years old ????, and "Still Going Strong".
Also see in this music tip threads here, many,many tips on music from just these older times......1960 onwards..
????Mine a little depressing thought is,....WHO should take over from these artists and bring the flag forward.?
Have the capacity to fill World Stadiums for decades....not I think it's Justin Bieber anyway ????.
As I see it,we need these artists who have the capacity to fill World Stadiums,..it helps other artists to come forward.
I remember when Bruce Springsteen pulled in over Sweden 1985 with the "Born in The USA Tour"...all of Sweden lived up,it was written in the newspapers for weeks about this.!!
So my maybe a little gloomy faith in the future is,while the hifi interest decreases.....
◾ Where are we heading really.?
◾ Who wants this "mainstream" music produced today.?
◾ Who will take over the musical baton and fill World Stadiums in the future as....
- John Fogerty
- Gun’s & Roses
- Rolling Stones
- Tina Turner
- Freddie Mercury,QUEEN
With several great artists done for decades.?
Timeless music that lasts for generations,is not forgotten after a few months,or a year.
Just a thought this Sunday afternoon.....
