I think that as youthful idealism fades out with age, musical tastes for things like Jackson Browne and Cat Stevens and a lot of old hippy-like ideals tends to fade as well.
Its something worth trying to hold onto though. Idealism beats cynicism any day in my book! After all, not all hippies turned out to be superficial phonies, right?
A little cynicism to temper the idealism is usually a good idea too.
So no reason to categorically reject any kind of music in my mind. We need it all, like yin and yang.
Peace!
Glad nobody has listed "The Moody Blues", at least not yet.
Love Alan Parson's more than ever!
