    Timeless. I agree 👍 💯 with comments below that great new music 🎶 is there to be found. What is just as good is the treasure trove of people digging out these quality recording of original live performances that show the artists 🎨, often dismissed as lightweight 'pop' in my era, who we always knew were a bit special; and went on to do interesting and inspiring things. In adversity, in Edwyn's case. I have some prints of his bird drawings, as well as original vinyl.
