I go back to The Presevation Hall Jazz Band.

Incredible !!!!!!!!

Rap is the bottom of the barrel——and NOT music.

I always loved Satchmo on this! Today it is more than relevant!

I love the music of Dinah Washington and Brook Benton!

No kidding. Sam Cooke, Four Tops, James Brown, too many to name ... back when black music and harmonies were great.

Now it's ugly thug crap.

Leon Bridges is a welcome throwback, though.

Motown was great. Rap and hip-hop stink.

I do. (I always say that I used to listen to “black music” back when it used to be good.)

Try explaining to young folks how everything, Soul/R&B/Rock and Roll used to all be on the same radio station. :-)
