I’m not a fan of generational stereotypes. Perhaps it’s because I’m on the cusp of two generations. In any event, here’s some music to say “OK, boomer” to. I remain mystified what Boomer Esiason has done to deserve this.
We have three versions of Dear Mr. Fantasy for your listening pleasure: the Traffic original, Steve Winwood and Eric Clapton live, and Crosby, Stills & Nash. All certified boomers and in Crosby’s case certifiable.
Thanks. It kills me now to think of the opportunities I have let slip by because I thought the legends of rock were too old. (only a little older than me). They can still bring it. I got dragged to a Fleetwood Mac concert the other night and really enjoyed it even though I still regard Rumours as their “new” album. Its heartening to hear all the young artist doing great covers of the classics.
