Yeah, I thought all that was bad, too, at least until Rod Stewart decided he was Mel Tormé. Kind of put it into perspective.

You're calling him a bad guitarist because of one bad song? That's kind of unfair, considering all the excellent songs he has.
raoullefere:
No, I'm (and I think akronnick as well) calling him an enormously gifted, influental guitarist who, after revolutionizing rock music, wrote a few sub-par songs that wound up getting twice as much airplay as any of his good stuff until recent years. I hate "Wonderful Tonight" and, while I appreciate the sentiment of "Tears in Heaven," that wore kind of smooth after the first hundred or so plays, too. I have to say, one great thing about mp3's and net radio is you can avoid this sort of crap (over-rotation) now. Ten, twenty years ago, not so much.
The Duke:
I suppose I can agree with you on that. I don't have too much experience with the radio 10-20 years ago, since I was a kid/not born yet at that time.

Ah, the interwebs, where opinions can span generations and a well explained point of view can be appreciated by all...
Your mileage may vary.
