Is it inevitable?

Allman Bros
Little Feat
Grateful Dead
Cream
Miles Davis
Return To Forever
Weather Report
(The 1970 edition of) Fleetwood Mac

It's inevitable...most people seem to evolve their musical preferences as we get older....I also enjoy all of the above mentioned groups music as it allows each listener their own interpretation of the music, and certainly early Mac is in that catagory. (I would include early to mid Santana also)

larg(Adam) you have matured and sought out the "roots" of the music you enjoyed in high school, and found a greater understanding, and thus your newer preferences...good for you, and keep seeking the music that your inner self finds solace and fullfilment. If you are becomming a guitar player, this will surely help develop you "own" style, which is why the above mentioned bands are enjoyed by many.
