I know that this is going to really frustrate certain people who believe that one kind of music is special, while others are not. I used to think that this was true until I started getting into all sorts of music. One day I realized that classical music can have the same affect on me as heavy metal does. Those who know Yngwie Malmsteen might understand where I am coming from. I am not a Malmsteen fan but if you understand his roots, then you will see that one kind of music is intimately linked with other types. You simply can’t escape this fact and more people are opening their eyes and leaving the debates about which type of music is better than others. Join me if you will but join at your own peril because not everyone is going to agree with you if you believe this.
