      I was born way after the 60s, and even I know that older music is way better than todays music. Us Millennials, who like good music, have to listen to older music. There sure isn't any new good stuff that means anything. I was talking to my friends last weekend, and I brought that when you listen to 60s,70s,80s music, you can feel that generation. The music carries the generation, and what the mind set was, and what people were feeling and thinking. I asked what music spoke OUR generation. 50 years from now, what music are people going to listen to and feel my generation? NOTHING. Because none of the music has any meaning.

    Back in 1968 ...... I was 14 ...... Heard about this band that was coming to the neighborhood in Queens at the time to our church and all the kids my age were gonna be there ..... It was the Amboy Dukes ...... little did I know that as I got close to the stage that I was looking at a Young Ted Nugent. and they played ..... journey to the center of your mind. All I got to say is that I was glad to have seen it .

    I saw him in sioux city Iowa around 1970 when he was still with Amboy dukes. There were about 150 people there and I stood front and center in front of 34 ampeg speakers on a full purple Microdot. It most certainly blew my mind!!!
