42 I am so sad to see the album Cover of Steely Dan’s “Countdown to Ecstasy” . As a young teenager living in the Midwest during the 70’s, I didn’t understand the symbolism.

You could read about this topic to no end on the Qresearch board on 8kun.
I was similarly disappointed when I not only realized what these things mean, but that it was fuggin damn-near every one of them in the industry.
I mostly listen to music that has no words, now.
But hey, Yanni, Manheim Steamroller, and TSO are prolly part of it, too. There's no escape.
I love all these instrumental also. Especially TSO and Mannheim Steamroller’s Christmas music :-)
We could probably dissect Vivaldi and Bach too … 🤷♀️
Thanks for the tip. I’ll search for the tread. I don’t care how many pedes of my age group are afraid to give up their idealistic idolization of groups from our period in time. It is time to expose them all.
