Elvis opened the doors for black music that was shamefully not allowed to be played on regular radio. So as you go through the different eras, there was the big band era, the so-and-so era, populations and tastes change.

That moved it a little to bigger sound, less complex, bigger riffs. And so we're a product of all those English bands, actually. But even during our reign, As the Gallup pulled number one band on the planet three years in a row, 77, 78, 79, above the Beatles, Led Zeppelin, and the Bee Gees, there was something going on.

moving together with steps with a big band in back of them. And it was just four or five guys in the front playing their own instruments, writing their own songs. So music will continue.
