It would be impossible for me to care any less than I already do not care about Taylor Swift.
I’m not a big Beyoncé fan, either, though my opinion of her isn’t quite at the Swift level.
With that out of the way, some random thoughts about the other 23 new inductees to the National Recording Registry:
- Weezer? Aren’t they one of those one-hit wonder college whimsy bands?
- Nice to see Spike Jones and His City Slickers getting some love.
- The guys get shirts!
- I have never heard Brother Ray’s “Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music” but I have heard good things about it. Maybe I should purchase that.
- I should also grab the “Chicago” original cast album, if I can find it. For those not familiar with “Chicago” or Broadway, the original cast included Gwen Verdon, Chita Rivera, and Jerry Orbach. And I like “Chicago”.
- I loved “The Devil Went Down to Georgia” when I was a child. I still do: I think it would still go in my personal top ten songs list.
- When I was younger, I thought Stevie Ray Vaughan was overrated. My opinion has softened some in the past few years, and I think “Texas Flood” isn’t a bad choice.
- ““Doom” soundtrack by Bobby Prince, composer”. In case you were unclear (as I was), yes, this is the soundtrack for the video game.
