Those doubting my repeated claim that the decade we live in--the oughts--closely resembles the 1970s might want to reconsider after encountering this startling piece of evidence supporting my theory: Bob Seger has the number four album in America on Billboard's chart. Bob Seger? Yeah, that Bob Seger.

FYI

He's going to be on Letterman on Wednesday.

Along with these retreads making comebacks (how do the Stones still sell out huge venues???), many kids are listening to retro and classic rock. Proves that a lot of the new bands just don't have what is takes musically or style wise.

Seger's reemergence on the charts just goes to show how starved we are for real soul driven rock n' roll. I hope this trend will continue and more 70's rock bands reassemble to retake the thrown of mainstream radio.

If there is a God the next 70's rock band to rise from the ashes will be the musical genius of Humble Pie. A true 70's supergroup and the first of the "power trio" format, Humble Pie rocked the world over. The memory of Steve Marriot must be revisited and exposed to the masses. Rock on Flynnfiles!

We've got Armadillos in our trousers. It's really quite frightening.

I think this is the first time you've mentioned a band I like on this blog.
