RE: Where has everyone gone??

Never heard of the Drive-By Truckers..... I'll check the band out.... Thank you much!

That was why I mentioned mainstream bands of the past.... Most people in the 1970s heard of Alan Parsons and Fleetwood Mac..... Yet like the Drive-By Truckers, there were also some great not-so-well-known acts like Camel and Gentle Giant......

I think of great recent acts like Steven Wilson and Dream Theater.... But unlike Steely Dan, you won't find a lot of people familiar with these acts. The mainstream treats these acts like they don't even exist.
