When I think back to some of the outfits I wore in the '60's - both on gigs and in daily life - I cringe. Can't believe I wore that stuff and actually thought it was hip. I have plenty of jazz albums with pics of the musicians wearing styles that seem hilarious and beyond the pale in 2020.

I just buy/wear relatively conservative clothes that I feel are basically timeless. I've seen a helluva lotta ridiculous fashions in my life. Some of the stuff that's considered hip today are styles that were popular when I was in junior high school. Fashion is basically change for change's sake and to make those who care about current fashions buy new clothes.
