Pink Floyd and other bands

It must have been a spine-chilling experience to hear, in person, the great bluesman Blind Willie Johnson playing slide-guitar and singing in the streets. There will never be anyone like those artists again.- and there were LOTS of them.
If it really were possible to go back 80 yeas in time, I'd take Manhattan (Fifth Avenue, Harlem, Greenwich Village, the best hotels, etc.), Chicago, other great American cities, cruises on the finest ships, Paris with the "Lost Generation", pre-War Berlin, London, Amsterdam, other great cities both here and elsewhere, the best museums, art-house movies and, of course, the sophisticated ladies of the world.
Back in the real world, a middle-aged city person of today like myself can be content and happy just with what we have. You can take cruises on Carnival and Holland America, travel by jet, go to Broadway shows, jazz clubs, etc., without too much trouble. It's not as grand as the old days, but it's fun to do, anyway. The post-Sept. 11 world sort of slowed my wife and I down a bit, like many others, but we started traveling on planes again, just last year.Breukelen advocaat Reviewed by Breukelen advocaat on . Pink Floyd and other bands i'm a huge floyd fan.... it's sad that there are no longer any true musicians... what happen to a group of dude's and some betty's renting a cottage in the mountains and stocking it full of drugs and alcohol... getting all their music equipment there.... coming out of it 6months later with a new album????? now it's all just fucking fake bullshit that is made up in sum record executive's office... they find a pretty face to sell it...... that's not music i don't give a flying flip what Rating: 5
