My childhood music memories are so interesting to me. I am still interested in the music today. Good music recorded before the 80s, since I was born in 1961.

Sounds a bit cynical.

You were growing up at that time and memories are closely tied to personal emotions and feelings of those years. Your emotions and feelings are important to you. But do other people need them? Your personal emotions and feelings have nothing to do with the music directly.

I'm discovering that music now. I would be interested in reading about the specifics of the recording or the events associated with the musicians. Someone's personal childhood associations are not directly related to the music.

I like the works of the Mahavishnu Orchestra. Especially "The Inner Mounting Flame" (1971) and "Visions Of The Emerald Beyond" (1975).

 

P.S. With other works of John McLaughlin I am just beginning to get acquainted.

Today, I find that no longer so good...

 

That was different in my childhood, which I count times to 1979.

 

Today, there must be much more substance. Or like this...

Yes, Head Hunters I know. I like that album.

I like the three Mwandishi + Crossings + Sextant albums even more. They're darker, deeper, more jazzy.

And the hard bop albums from the 60's. Hancock has a lot of interesting albums.

So, what I have neglected so far are the years from 1971-1975

e.g. Sweet:

 

or Slade:

It doesn't matter what kind of music you listened to at that time.

The important thing is what music recorded in the 60's is interesting to listen to today.

Here is a statement from a friend (sammy).

As I said, I understand him, would also go on my sack, but he is quite human.......

You do not understand what you think is good music. Hold it against me that I should only find beautiful what is beautiful today.

Of course, there were beautiful things in the past.

But nowadays there is a recording much more demanding, the content of the music does not matter....

Hier mal eine Statement von einem Freund (sammy).

Wie gesagt, ich versteh ihn, würde mir auch auf den Sack gehen, aber er ist ziemlich human.......

Ihr versteht es nicht was ihr Glaubt was gute Musik ist. Mir vorhalten, dass ich nur das schön finden soll, was heute schön ist.

Natürlich gab es auch früher schöne Sachen.

Aber heutzutage ist da eine Aufnahme viel Anspruchsvoller, der Inhalt der Musik ist egal....

Die Tatsache, dass der Inhalt der Musik irrelevant ist, ist das Hauptproblem. Es stellt sich heraus, dass es keine Musik gibt. Es gibt nur Klänge. Es stellt sich heraus, dass die Professionalität der Musiker, das Talent, das Vorhandensein von Ideen keine Rolle spielen. Es stellt sich heraus, dass der Selbstausdruck nicht wichtig ist. Die Hauptsache ist, dass das Produkt gut gemacht (recorded), gut produziert und gut beworben wird. Adiophile hören keine Musik, sie hören Hardware.

Gute Musik ist, wenn die Musiker ein hohes Maß an Professionalität an den Tag legen, wenn sie Ideen haben, wenn sie sich selbst ausdrücken. Wenn es weniger Produzenten und Vermarkter gibt, die ihre Nasen in die Arbeit der Musiker stecken. In dieser Hinsicht ist die alte Musik der modernen Musik eindeutig überlegen.

Es gibt auch einen Unterschied in der Kultur, den Werten und der Erziehung. Auch das beeinflusst alles.

Die Sprachbarriere macht es unmöglich, sich vollständig auszudrücken. Leider.
