I have long maintained that there is lots of great new music out there. But radio is too brain-dead to play any of it. A good part of the problem is that radio hates going to the trouble of introducing new artists. It's risky. They'd rather stick with the already-established roster. If the likes of Hendrix (or any other ground-breaking artists) came along today, they'd get zero corporate radio play.
Aye, that's a lovely tune. Why can't we get the radio to play stuff like this? Once upon a time, they would on occasion.
