Come to think of it, there was quite a bit going on musically in the 50s and 60s, when there were all these pop orchestras and bands competing, than there is now in the cost conscious 00s, with nothing more than computers and tape samples. I don't know if you've heard the so-called "techno" or "house" (house?) computer generated music, it is without a question unlistenable, awful.

I have heard it and most is sonic dreck. I believe we have entered a sort of "dark age" with respect to music and art and it is a shame because the technology available is amazing. There was A LOT of interesting music going on before the beatles.
