"That period has passed because now there are many alternative social mediums. Rock and roll needs a context in which to exist. "It doesn't exist anymore. It's ceased to be culturally relevant. Very perceptive. I'm shocked that rap lasted longer than a few years, and that rap and dance have displaced rock. They're very monotonous.
There was so much variety and great music in Rock's hey-day, which I would peg from '67-'79.

Too bad disco isn’t dead either. Whether it is 70s or house music, it all is repetitive machination of sounds designed for drug fueled boinking.
