Showing Original Post only (View all)Does Taste in Music Change? Become "Mature"? [View all]
Had the "top three bands on a desert island" conversation with my brother in law this afternoon. He told me he used to be into Zeppelin and The Who, but his taste in music changed. Yet he is still going to choose The Beatles as one of the bands he listens to on the island. That seems strange to me. Maybe it's because I started out on The Beatles when I was really young and then branched out into other rock bands? I thought of it as a progression (no disrespect to The Beatles.) Are certain bands commonly viewed as "immature" when people get into their forties or fifties?
Or maybe I'm venting because Zeppelin are rock gods!

Yeah just because I listen to Amon Amarth and Ghost, doesn't mean Iron Maiden is suddenly lame.
