Heard "Invisible Touch" in the car yesterday: embarrassed pleasure at the time, still sounds good (the grain of the voice and all that). I started thinking about the recent photos of Collins that occasionally pop up on my FB wall: a kindly old British gentleman surrounded by his grandchildren. That got me to doing that timeline game: we're as far from "Invisible Touch" today as "Invisible Touch" was from George Formby. That's how someone young would look at Phil Collins today, right? He's George Formby.

Well so is Nick Cave
― A So-Called Pulitzer price winner (President Keyes), Wednesday, 5 June 2024 16:55 (six days ago) link
I guess true of anybody from 1986, but doesn't Nick Cave still sort of try to look like he used to? (I looked at a few online photos.) He doesn't look very grandfatherly.
― clemenza, Wednesday, 5 June 2024 16:58 (six days ago) link
(And believe me, trying to look like you used to is not preferable.)
not to cause an existential crisis but yeah it's wild to think that the amount of time between Invisible Touch and say, Revolver is the same amount of time between now and "Float On" by Modest Mouse

Would any performer of Formby's generation have played to crowds in their 70s like those that saw Genesis a year or two ago?
― Halfway there but for you, Wednesday, 5 June 2024 17:11 (six days ago) link
The performers in their 70s, not the crowds (mostly).
― Halfway there but for you, Wednesday, 5 June 2024 17:12 (six days ago) link
These kinds of calculations always fascinate me. The thing they often lead me back to is that the music I loved as a kid, all the late '60s and early '70s pop, is still everywhere today. But I don't recall hearing Rudy Vallee and Harry Lauder and Fred Waring's Pennsylvanians when I was a kid. (I know--thanks, Boomer.)
(It was just a casual formulation, Halfway--I'm sure you can pick it apart a million ways.)
― clemenza, Wednesday, 5 June 2024 17:13 (six days ago) link
We're actually making the same point there.
I don't reject the formulation or calculation, but as you say it shows a change in how music lives on or is disposed of now.
― Halfway there but for you, Wednesday, 5 June 2024 17:15 (six days ago) link
The oldest music I remember from the "Adult Contemporary" AM radio in the 1970s was maybe the Andrews Sisters, less than 40 years old at that time, and maybe a handful of 50s leftovers.
