Here is what some artist think.
Bob Dylan said, "There are groups at the top of the charts that are hailed as the saviors of rock n' roll and all that, but they are amateurs. They don't know where the music comes from".
Billey Joel said "Videos destroyed the vitality of rock n' roll. Before that,
music said, "Listen to me.' Now it says, 'Look at me.'
Branford Marsalis said, "the biggest problem with American music right now is that kids don't listen. When people go to concerts, they say, 'I'm going to see,' not, 'I'm going to hear."
Mick Mars said, "Today, you can go into the studio and not even be a musician, just start beating on stuff and they can take parts out, move it around and make you sound like Slash. You don't have to work at it like you did back in the day.
Ian Anderson said, "A lot of pop music is about stealing pocket money from children."
I like to know what is your point of view?
