Ellen - thank you so much for the kind words and the generous restack, I've been off of Substack a bit while I try to ideate what I would come back with, but to feel so heard by you made me happy and excited about writing again!! grazieee
Di niente, Reid, and whatever you decide, I'm sure it will be interesting and fun to read.
Btw, I'm reading a book called Major Labels: A History of Popular Music in Seven Genres by Kelefa Sanneh, and it made me think of your posts on sub-genres. He explores the genres' evolutions over the decades, and it's making me realize how fractured and contested the rock genre is now and why there are some very different camps. (But we're talking US and UK. It could be very different in other countries.)
Great to have you back, Reid HT. So much fun to hear about your Milan experience and listen to some Italian music, as well as see some photos.
