Sorry about this guys, and I know this one has been knocked about on here a few times before. But here it is. Tonight I was watching a video of a band called Stone The Crows from 1971. That band never progressed in a big way, although the vocalist, Maggie Bell, did. As I was watching it the thought occurred to me how spoiled we were back then. There were so many bands emerging playing blues/rock influenced music. Some made it big time, many others didn't. But the scene was very vibrant. Where is the vibrancy now? I'm not sure how it has come to this, though I think technology has played a big part. Some American bands are still keeping Rock alive but Rock is all but dead and buried in The UK (unless you consult the 50/60 year olds).
