Years ago, I watched an interview with Anne Murray and she talked about age discrimination in the music business. As time does it’s thing I see what she meant, the world treats the younger very differently than the older. Was thinking about different responses from audiences when Neil Young was young and sang “look at mother nature on the run in the 1970s” vs. older and sang “let’s impeach the president”. Not sure the 2cnd thing was noticed very much despite Neil arming his message for maximum exposure with videos and talk show interviews – so much more media on his side to utilize vs. the 70s, and yet I think he had less interest from that more recent public. Just taking him for an example, but maybe the point is the context… but then again there are lots of people who command a different attention from the world when they are young vs. when they are older – even if their message is more refined. Am I just a crazy old guy showing off his delusions?
