A lot of people want artists to remind them of when they were young. They like the songs they liked when they were young. The artists are there to provide memories. Nothing else. So how dare the artists age! That reminds people of their own aging! <br /><br />Anyway. Fuck that. "Steel Wheels" is pretty great. "Magic" is my most listened-to Springsteen album. I listen to "Love And Theft" more than any other Dylan. And the last year has taught me how much I've been missing by not listening to "Memory Almost Full" or "Chaos and Creation..."<br /><br />This is a great mixChris Collinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13085796025551175453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4357001616333664522.post-54923595874330554312018-09-21T16:54:33.569-07:002018-09-21T16:54:33.569-07:00Though listening to it, the Pretenders version is ...Though listening to it, the Pretenders version is a huge upgrade!Honest Ednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4357001616333664522.post-60858191056148682082018-09-21T16:52:06.107-07:002018-09-21T16:52:06.107-07:00https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X41tf3kCqok

Are there people who really stopped listening with "Slow Dancer"? BTW do you ever watch "Crate Diggers" on Prime? More than one dj has a copy of Boz Scaggs & Band on display in the background. I should listen to it again to figure out what breaks they're sampling.<br /><br />I see you have "Animals" in your listening-to list.
