Music and things

Listening to John Denver's "Leaving, on a jet plane" from 1967 gives me chills and just the different sense of heart that the music had from that time period. I agree some music from my generation can be pretty ridiculous and lack many of the pure traits from the 40's-80's (past generations) style of music that is the foundation for artists of my generation, but that is why music is called influential. I appreciate music from my time, and from the past.
