Unavailable?
Works for me.
Same here. Video Unavailable…
Unavailable for me too. That’s okay though. I’m listening to this now. Castlevania 3, but Synthwave!
The Rolling Stones – "Sweet Viginia" (live, 1995)
The 1995 album Stripped was The Rolling Stones contribution to the MTV Unplugged craze of the 1990s.
Six of the tracks were recorded live in concert, including this rendition of “Sweet Virginia.”
The Rolling Stones – "Love in Vain" (1995)
The other eight tracks were recorded live in the studio, without any overdubs.

That’s kinda weird.
Our kids, and their kids, all have their own faves, and they don’t care much about what came before! For most people the definition of good music is the music they listened to as teenagers. When they get older, keeping a finger on the pulse of pop music is just not a priority. Work, marriage, and kids do not leave them with the time or money for that.
It doesn’t take long for those biases to work their way into top-ten lists.
For a long time, that described me, but soon after turning 20, my musical horizons widened considerably. Now, I’ll listen to just about anything. The swing jazz and classical music that my parents and grandparents loved ranks among my favorites. And I give a fair listen to every single post in this thread. More than once, I’ve been pleasantly surprised by an artist that otherwise would never have come onto my radar.

I know a lot of kids that still love good old 70s rock and roll. I can take a little of everything. My father was an Italian opera freak. He’d play it loud. He’d sing it. When the British Invasion hit he was not a happy camper. We had our differences to say the least. This was the 60s and 70s for me. I never really took to opera or classical for that matter. I had a roommate in college that listened to classical. Again it was the 70s and we had our problems. 
To each their own.

A little something to get me going for my work out!
In the Ken Burns documentary about jazz music, Wynton Marsalis said something that has stuck with me. Not only was jazz the most popular music of its day; it also rose to the level of high art. At least, the best of it did.
That’s a rare thing. Usually, you have to dumb it down to sell it to the masses.
For me, the classic rock era—dating roughly from the mid 1960s to the mid 1980s—is another time when pop music rose to the level of art. That’s true for some of it, at least. I think that’s why it continues to get attention from the kids today.
Of course, the majority of pop music, from any era, is disposable. And a lot of it is atrocious. I am reminded of this every time I listen to a Billboard top-ten compilation from any of the years in the classic rock era. Ditto for the jazz era.

Yep. I’m still learning to like jazz…It’s musicians music and I’m not a musician. The classic rock era is easier for me to “get” but it doesn’t seem to be as good nowadays. I do love some modern pop music though.

Part of the reason for that is that the “suits” have gotten control of it.
Today, most pop is produced by business professionals who craft tunes they think will have a mass appeal. They sell/produce those songs for attractive young performers who market them to teenagers. For the most part, no one gives a whit about art.
Same thing happened in most other pop music eras.
One of things that makes the classic rock era special is that the musicians got control of the process. The counter culture that sprung from the 1960s cut the “suits” out of the business. The musicians wrote their own songs. The businessmen who controlled the record companies did not understand them, and, in many cases, did not even like them. But they still wanted the money!
So they let the artists do their own thing.

there is this video floating around, I can’t find it. one of those singing competition programs. Some Bossa style track starts playing, and one of the judges goes “oooOooo, jass!” I think alot of people who “like” jazz like the basic stuff, as even the more intermediate an advanced stuff might require some math degree to fully break it down…but jazz has never been about formulaic composition, it’s about active chemical rendition. It’s okay though, I listen to elevator/lounge jazz-style music at work. it’s one thing to groove with a limited toolset, and a different thing to be groovy following a preset pattern. Both are nice, but listen to enough Jazz and you can hear the difference.

Firmly believe there are distinct timelines of music in the 21st century.
50’s with very little manipulation outside of reverb and primitive echo.
Then Before Autotune and After and would throw in synth/computer drums around the same time frame.
Now currently we enter another time frame of Before Ai and After.
Pop music gets run through what I call the Corporate Blender.
I.E. Brittany sounds like Taylor who sounds like Madonna with some things.
Steely Dan and Alan Parsons Project probably get the closest to perfection for me at least, of well done musicmanship.
Some Rush can be thrown in as well.
Really good Jazz falls into the same perfect time signatures.

Nathaniel Rateliff and the night sweats.
SOB
When this song came out 10 years ago I liked it a lot but there was something about it that sounded so familiar.
It was probably a couple years later that I heard the song that I couldn’t think of when I heard sob.
