What I remember most from that is Kent saying Keef turned blue on Kent's watch & he had to 'walk' him & such to not OD. Keef trades on his outlaw image - fair enuff in many ways - but it's been no joke. I enjoyed Keef's autobio as well - but the short shrift given BrianJones rankles... Yes I know he was a devil too...

Mr. Pumpy:

Rev Rab...the amount of great music did change...it increased! A simple byproduct of exposure and production costs plummeting to where someone can make a record in their bedroom or apartment these days. Sure, a lot of shite came along with it, but there is more music than ever being pumped out. In turn, more cream on the top.

Rev Rab...that's a good, and interesting point. And I do get it when folks sit around and talk about the glory days of tunes and all, but usually these are people that don't realize the major media outlets aren't the only source for what is actually going on. Good thing we do...and that we have something like WFMU to aid in the quest for the fine tunes!

Obviously Modernism & the 2nd half of the 20thCentury was a CounterCulture explosion - & the 1960s in particular a confluence of the PostWar demographic Youth Boom, Underground Culture & Art, advancing technology in Recording & Broadcasting &tc. - & the Boom in economics & Industry all interacting. Modernism was the Shock of the New. Exciting new advances were explored.
One notable aspect of PostModernism is Pastiche. Everything used to have its Manifesto & be so important. It was all gonna Change the World - & your Style & Statement meant everything ! But now we can pick & choose among them all. It can be like the little old church surrounded by skyscrapers - or a vital culture being stuck into t museum. Miniaturized: Reduced. 'Inside the Museum, Infinity goes up on Trial. This is what Slavation must be like after awhile'...
But I think this is also old news by now - & we have plenty that's Meaningful now again ! You have to believe people will be Creative in the broad & true sense.
