I have a 19 yr old daughter who likes music that I can't stand. I don't
criticize, however. Who am I to say? She was raised with the music that
her Mom and I enjoyed; that ranged from popular sixties/seventies music to
Jazz and excessive classical music. She does not appreciate any of that
music, at least at this point in time. I think what I'm trying to say is
the following: I would not like/appreciate it. I would still argue that
it does have a place in society, and it would probably expand the listening
repertoire of many so-called *heavy-metal* fans. After all, the Moody
Blues bridged the gap between the *classical* and the contemporary pop
for my generation.
Always trying to keep an open mind, Iain Simons
