Certainly right-wingers have coopted some of the sixties left-wing slogans like those in the Airplane songs. That would not, of course, satisfy the Jefferson Airplane. But I think maybe the alternate version of Let's Go Together might appeal to some left-wing at-least non-boomers (if not anti-boomers), since the intent was to delete reference to the people that Paul Kantner knew in his circle and his travels in circa 1970, who were mostly boomers or war babies.

Yes; pretty-much agreed. The original supergroup was different; a combination of late-sixties left-wing hippie and CA groups. Quite a cast! Thanks for your comment.
Quote: Aerosmith, Rush and Queen had a number of good songs, but I can't really think of a single Kiss song that I like, so I agree with you there. Though I can see how they might have been an entertaining live performance. Grunge was awesome! I guess it was one of those things where you had to live it to know it.
From what I've heard of Nirvana and Pearl Jam etc. I can't for the life of me imagine any life circumstance, or of being any age, in any generation, where I, at least, would have liked grunge. Broadly speaking, I came into this life with some basic musical inclinations already set, I think. Although for sure I don't know that much of grunge. But Queen did some pretty good songs IMO. Don't want to focus on what I don't like here on this thread. But, of course, disagreements can be discussed on the 2T vs 3T music thread
