what strikes me presently about the state of the us pop charts is how similar
they are to the charts of the mid-70'---in the following way:
remember the crazy mix of styles that made up the billboard top 40 in the mid
70's??

GordonLightfoot/Kiss/Cher/NeilSedaka/Alice/beegees/AWB/Barrywhite/Aerosmith/St
arland Vocal
Band/Streisand/Jgeilsband/VickyLawrence/Eagles/TVThemesongs/etcetc...schizo
or what?

now:Limp Bizkit/Garth
Brooks/ODB/Korn/Backstreetboys/MariahC./Metallica......it's just as mixed
up....

i actually think it's a great thing. i wouldn't listen to the vast majority
of the current stuff above, but i think the diversity is cool.
