Country Joe, Janis, Jimi... the list goes on of bands that had wonderful first efforts (some as good or better than anything they'd put out later).
Music, like all art, is a product of its times. No passion, these days. Kids are against the war, sure, but do they do anything about it?
All they want is good grades in college, good job afterwards. No arrests for protesting. Could hurt the corporate future in a cubby.
Hardly the stuff of great music or anything else.
