Oh, and the Black Keys definitely need to be on the best Xer band list. They barely qualify though! The duo born in '79 and '80.

Ahh, a fellow tubist. Motown 1985? Go back 20 years if you are going to use the term. Black music, my first love, everything from the start. Until!!!: Free jazz and rap. For me music is melody, harmony, and rhythm. Of this triad, only melody can live alone. My other first love, classical, I love until modern crazy-tone junk. I still believe that the greatest American contribution to Art is jazz of the 50's, 60's, and 70's (before fusion). Winton Marsalis has breathed new life into it. And I listen to early pre-drug rock and classic country too. My latest love is Hasidic religious tunes. Music colors the mind. My next piece in substack touches upon this.
