  • Rock n roll was found dead in the early 90's

    Rock as we know it is dead. In the 50's the older generation said it would never last. They said it was a flash in the pan. Well, it lasted longer than they thought. Yet, it died. It was not Heaven that killed it. It was Nirvana that killed it. Dreadful noises have been coming out of radios ever since. Call it Alternative, grundge, or whatever, but don't call it Rock, or Rock n roll. What could possibly come next? Yes, some of the spirits of Classic Rock are still hanging around: Aerosmyth, Van Halen, Eagles, Lynyrd Skynryd etc. Happy to see that, but it is not enough. Sorry Little Richard, Elvis, Jerry.
