Default Am I Being Selfish?

Hi all.....I've always said with regards to a lot of the music produced
these days:

Where's all the real musician ship gone & the thousands of hours of
practice, dedication & torment that goes with trying to master an
instrument?!?!?
In 100yrs time or so no one will actually play an instrument anymore
at this rate!


I think what it is; I'm being selfish here! When I'm in my 60's 70's 80's
(if I get that far: & incapable of playing myself for what ever reason: I
want to be able to listen to great players of the day.
The likes of, pheeeew where do I start:
Guitarists: Al Di Meola, Frank Gambalie, Greg Howe, Pat Metheny, Eric
Johnson, Larry Colton, Jan Ackerman, Gary Moore.
Drummers: Dennis Chambers, Vinnie Colaiuta, Virgil Donati, Dave Weckl, Billy
Cobham, Steve Smith.
Bass Players: Victor Wooten, Jaco Pastorius, John Patitucci, Jeff Berlin,
Charles Mingus, Mark King, Alphonso Johnson.
Piano/Keys: Oscar Peterson, Chick Corea, Lyle Mays, George Duke, Thijs Van
Leer..i could go on & on!!!
A few of these greats have already departed from this world. Yep Selfish!!!
As i said: i'll have no one to listen to the way music is going at the
moment!!!

Just a thought.

WaLT.
