Was surprised to find this 1963 BBC show Remastered into 4K!

Nat was an amazing artist. Today few vocalists even attempt doing his hits. Here the entire show from back then.

Nat King Cole. What a voice. Can't help but smile listening to such natural talent.

Billboard top 100 was dominated by Rock. Even with some crossover from hip hop and other genres, it was still primarily guitar, bass, drums and keyboard and still had the rebellious sound of rock that I enjoy. Since the 2000's Rock hasn't changed much, and other genres that I don't enjoy have taken over. The rebellious heart pumping excitement is lacking. Electronic beats, and computer sequenced copy and paste has replaced uniquely skilled musicians. Any new rock bands that get any traction are mostly retro to past decades, Greta Van Fleet comes to mind.
Maybe Rock Music plateaued and there was nowhere else to take it. I don't believe that's true, but here we are.

We couldn't keep politics out of the music thread?
It was nice while it lasted.
