Actually the world saw the future of rock and roll via Little Richard and Chuck Berry.
Springsteen tagged along.
"and the greatest live rock performer of all time."
That's funny
Guess you never saw Freddy Mercury.
End of story.
For the most part I agree with you Kb54.
However, although The Beatles early work was energetic and ground breaking, their best work arguably was Rubber Soul and after.
Fleetwood Mac was interesting until the bubblegum team of buckingham/nicks era.
Agreed.
I used "interesting" in comparison to the current iteration which is basically a top 40 band. FM, in all make ups, was fabulous prior to buckingham/nicks.
Thanks
Oh snap, a personal insult.
That speaks directly to the individual rather than the subject matter.
I'm older than you, have all the original pressings, and saw the band 5 times before 1976.
Don't lecture somebody who knows more than you. It could be embarrassing.
