Rattiki quote;
Basically as far as I can see this all comes down to a debate about two things: style/genre and class/quality (and maybe integrity). It maybe only two things, but they are VERY important things! Now I understand Bamboo Ben's, rodeotiki's and others desire of artistic freedom, "no rules", accept all, mentality. And maybe that is part of that 60's-70's youthful, baby boomers, left coast mentality that may have had it's merit at one time.....BUT sorry as I approach 45 rapidly I no longer can agree! Classic STYLE and stylish CLASS have for far too long been degraded and devalued in our 'do as you -and dress as you- please' American postmodern society, and though this lack of value has far from rotted through the fabric of all the cultures/societies of this planet, it certainly has bled a lot out of it!
Very well said.
