Overrated Bands
Inlander:
What do you mean, you cannot judge? All their recorded output, and all the recorded output of their contemporaries and influences, is readily available!
BeoPuppy:
Yes, but to me it's hindsight. I cannot judge the cultural significance of 'that record' exploding 'on the scene'. I can judge the record but not it's importance at that time.
Thrillho:
Not for any record, or just the Stones? Because that lack of understanding can cut you off from appreciating a lot of good music.

You can appreciate the music for the music. But my guess is that the impact of new music cannot be explained. I mean, that whole 'summer of love' thing I get, as a concept but since I wasn't there the importance of the events is lost on me. Likewise, I think if I tried to explain ... Nirvana, let's say, to younger people than myself they'd find it hard to get. But they might still like the music, though.
And, no, Wiki doesn't help.
