>No, I'm not implying that all of modern music is bad.  There may be
alot of crap out there (and because I mentioned Pearl Jam or any other
popular band of today was not meant to imply that their stuff is crap_,
but actually that's probably true of any era.

>Actually, music IMHO is neither "good" nor "bad" -- you either like it
or you don't, and the fact that many people like a certain music doesn't
make it "good" music, and neither does the fact that I don't like alot
of modern music mean that it's crap.

>John
Apoligies John if my response appeared to be directed strictly at you; what
you indicate here is how I interpreted your thoughts.  Good or bad is an
individual decision on the part of the consumer.  Not to belittle anyone who
reviews movies, books or albums for a living, but in the end I wonder how
much of their opinion is relied on by the average consumer in making a buy
no buy decision.  I buy based on what I hear.  If I buy blind then I take my
chances.  It is only after I buy an album that I read reviews and thats only
for comparison purposes.  I can live with my batting average so far which is
about 500.
