I have had success throughout the years. Some of the hard rock bands today don't have the history that I have.

Music is part of history, and our history has lessons that cannot be separated from our greatest music.

History is, of course, a made thing. It does not exist by itself in anything like a recognizable form.

We've been gone five years and the best they could come up with was boy bands?

Back in the days, the groups and the bands that we listened to were like Earth, Wind and Fire, Santana and Grateful Dead. We don't have a lot of those bands anymore.

I do belong to the club which doesn't see a distinction between academic history and popular history.

You know, songs often have a very coloured past. They might have something about them but it still doesn't work, so someone else adds a bit, and someone else adds a bit so perhaps one day I'll know its full history.
