Despite<br />
the protestations<br />
of small-minded<br />
reactionary bores, music, fittingly, just like<br />
time, never stands still. There is always<br />
something new worth listening to. So far this<br />
year there have been vital albums from Little<br />
Simz, Solange, Steve Mason, William Tyler,<br />
Ariana Grande and Helado Negro.<br />
The key is to remain inquisitive, open to<br />
new ideas and keep that inner 16-year-old<br />
sense of wonderment alive. Unfortunately,<br />
too many people stop listening once they hit<br />
a certain age and store their musical tastes<br />
in aspic, blithely declaring that year x, y or z<br />
was the best year for music ever.<br />
And yet… some years can’t help but<br />
acquire a certain potency. Some cultural<br />
historians and old punks (sometimes one<br />
and the same) will refer to the scorched<br />
earth, year zero significance of 1976.<br />
