    The BEST music in world history! The 60s & 70s brought us the most diverse, amazing music by so many wonderful bands. I can’t even name one of today’s singers or bands that would even make the top 100 if they performed back then. It’s all autotuned, pitch-corrected blandness with a dozen half naked background dancers. Look at the Super Bowl halftime show last night (2/11/24). It was a horrendously bland performance. I could’ve been on that stage and received raving applause because people today don’t know anything other that mediocracy.

How many songs have sold more than 10 million copies? Thank you Keith Reid, Gary Brooker, Matthew Fisher, bassist David Knights AKA The Undertaker, session drummer Bill Eyden and producer Denny Cordell!

    It was 1968 and I was waiting for a bus in Detroit at about 1AM. It was a warm misty night. I had just broken up with my girlfriend and this song was playing in my head. A car passed by with its windows down and "A whiter Shade of Pale" could be heard on the radio. It was sad and uplifting at the same time. I always stop and listen whenever I hear it playing, capturing that moment in time forever.
