old becomes new again

Well, not as old anyway. I jammed Jane's Addiction-Ritual de lo Habitual at work tonight. It didn't sound as tired as it used to, and I really enjoyed it. Sure, it sounds dated, but not as dated as this video looks:

(Warner Bros. won't let me embed the video. You know, 1%er b.s.)

I guess there comes a time when you can finally go back and listen to those tired and overplayed albums and listen to them with fresh ears. If it sounds great finally after all this time, (you know, past nostalgia and all that bullcrap), then maybe that's the criteria for great music. For me, Appetite For Destruction falls under this. It sounds even better to me now. Get what I'm saying?(LC)
