Think Ive grown to dislike Dylan more,the older Ive got.Dont disagree that he was a pioneer of his age,and a talented songwriter.Possibly more to do with him as a person.I can listen to a few of his songs before his voice annoys me
Re Elton john - His 70s stuff was good,but his 80s stuff especially,seemed like it was just been churned out quickly and cheaply for max profit...with the odd exception eg 'Guess thats why they all it the blues'
I thought I was immovable from my bluesy/ rock orientated listen(and as a former drummer therein)...still delve into it these days when ness,....but have definitley broadened my musical horizons of late,eg 'the Roving' song on the previous page,folk,the Big band sound,Classic even..in small doses.
Agreed abou Jazz,something Ive never gotten into.Indulgent drivel.I'll exempt Oscar Petersen from that though,fantastic pianist
