Musical Friday
Thanks to Andrew (again!) for leading to Blender's list of the 50 Worst Things to Happen to Music. Now, I have to sort of disagree with #50- Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. I say sort of since what is being talked about is this:

Has any record's influence upon music proved so malignant? Concept albums, progressive rock, Brian Wilson's nervous breakdown, baby boomers yammering away about the Summer of Love, musicians taking themselves more seriously than cancer surgeons -- all the Beatles' fault.
Or how about #42- Scott Stapp:
Although he's rehabilitated his image in recent years by becoming an incorrigible drunk and trying to beat up 311, there's no getting around the music.
Good fun all around. And while you're there, don't miss the 50 Most Awesomely Dead Rock Stars(yes, they're all there!)
