Poll

Are music's best days now behind us?

No....but there's room for improvement.
No....today's music is just different from what we old folks remember.
Yes.  The best songs have been written and the most innovative guitar solos played.
Yes. There's no $ to be made in the music biz.  Where's the incentive?
All of the above.

I have to agree that we seem to be stuck. Once rock hit in '55, it was hear to stay. Swing, jazz, country, and so many other forms still exist but all the dominant stuff has some form of a rock beat. I do like a number of relatively recent acts such as Teenage Fanclub, Fleet Foxes, My Morning Jacket, Ben Folds and I think they have a good degree of originality. Tame Impala is great but very derivative of 60's psychedelia and that's probably why I like them. So many others are very derivative.
