Most music these days is absolute trash, unfortunately.

100% agree. I leave a radio on the more or less oldies station. When there were a few attempts at a country gold station here, I would generally leave the dial alone.

I use I-Heart radio some and there is the CD collection of mostly soundtracks of older movies and TV shows mostly.

"Most music these days is absolute trash, unfortunately."

Most music produced was always trash, going back as far as records were made. Once, it was the Top 40 and payola, but at least the music producers had a system, more or less, for sorting things out, and bringing you something new on a regular basis, the better to sell more records. Today, I don't think that system works anymore, and you have to do the sorting yourself. What I like to do is go on Amazon and start exploring their MP3 music. Just follow one thread after another, listening to the 15 second samples, and you will survey a remarkable variety of different styles and find quite a bit of new music that is very good.

I disliked the "radio bands" pretty much my whole life.

Disco? You people think disco acts weren't manufactured and using studio gimmicks (and piles of co-co-co-caine to fuel the frenzies response)?

The late '80's and early '90's produced some good music.
