But yeah, "Seven Bridges Road" is one of those cuts that makes one sit right the f%ck up from the first second you hear it and know instantly what true genius level musical talent sounds like. The Eagles had it in spades, IMO, one of the most talented groups not just of their era, but in history.<br /><br />Not every mainstream "entertainer" is musically talented much, for every group you hear on the radio, there are hundreds you dont, who play either small venues and/or do studio work.<br /><br />Back in the 90's, my then wife intrduced me to Jason Aldean(WIlliams), she had been married to Jason's dad's brother, and had 3 kids by him. The second oldest boy she had, whose Jason's age, has worked at an Atlanta area walmart his whole adult life, yet is a musical virtuoso. His wheelhouse has always been hard metal guitar, and man can he shred, but he can play anything, sings way better than Jason, writes better than Jason(This has paid for his doublewide insured for a quarter mil because of the pro sound stage/studio in it.<br /><br />Jason's dad is retired AIr force, NASA, and now manages young local country talent until they ready for prime time. His mother is the child of Cuban boat refugees, and in her seventies her beauty and grace are off the charts.

No Diversity ? There is no mayhem either. Ponder that. So so raycisst !
