I'm a huge fan of the early works of both Aerosmith and ZZ Top - both bands that I would say are a bit laughable these days.
Aerosmith - a fantastic, gritty rock 'n' roll band from the 70s - reduced these days to a formulaic, hit-making machine and a ball-less parody of their former selves.
ZZ Top - a classic, down and dirty, Texas blues band from the 70s - reduced these days to a gimmicky (beards, hot rods, funny shaped guitars that spin round) circus act who play a mediocre dirge of forgettable rock.
Is it just me or does anybody else listen to bands or artists who these days, you wouldn't give them the time of day, but you hold their early stuff in such high regard that it's almost sacred to you?
