When I see artists like the Isley Brothers, Sly Stone, Curtis Mayfield, Wilson Pickett and the like given very little respect, I start to wonder how many how many of you guys really have a knowledge of the history of music.
Some of you may consider this "playing a race card", but, I consider it being truthful.
Most of what you listen to today was influenced by black musicians. Guys like Waters, Chuck Berry, and the Isleys have had their styles copied by many white artists.
I'll grant you that I like AC/DC. But, to say that one great album was better than the Supremes "entire catalog" is a bunch of BS.
