Watchmen

I just finished reading the graphic novel, or series of comics “Watchmen”. The writing and artwork were both really great, especially the writing. It was really thought provoking and paints great images when reading. When I got to the end I thought it was pretty good, but I had seen it somewhere before . . . “Heroes”.  Now, I like the show, but “Heroes” totally ripped off the ending to “Watchmen”, thus diminishing the ending once I got there.  That kind of sucks, because I would have to assume that when the comic was actually published, and the ending was a far more original idea, its impact would be amazing and an instant classic. But since I had seen the first season of “Heroes”, which relied largely on the same idea, except with the opposite result, it didn’t excite me as much.

I find this exact same scenario to be true in music today. What if the first song you ever heard was “Karma Chameleon” by culture club, or the first guitar solo you heard was in a Metallica song.  What would that say about your perspective on music. You would have no frame of reference of what came before it, what was better, like The Zombies or Jimi Hendrix.

Being a musician I’ve been thinking about this a lot.  I want to compose songs like Fleetwood Mac, The Eagles or Bob Dylan.  There is a certain period that is considered “classic” in the history of pop or rock music and that is largely the 60’s and 70’s. There is so much music out there today, and so many styles it is an overload. No one is writing music like that anymore because it isn’t “new” to them. What if the first song you ever heard was “Crossroads” (Robert Johnson).  What kind of song would you write after hearing that? “Voodoo Chile”? “Spanish Castle Magic”?  What if you were a contemporary of Hendrix, what would you write, “One of These Nights”, “Hotel California”? Musicians are influenced by their peers and what they hear in their time and we’re losing touch with the greatest music.
