It's always hard to say what will be the thing that will be remembered when you actually live it.
I guess that what majors are trying to sell right now won't be remembered, while what independant labels that create a new style and a following audience will.
It's also funny to see that sometimes, players weren't really famous when they were alive, and they are rediscovered once they die...
I'm pretty sad when I see the 1969 woodstock film. All those great bands, they have become a part of history. And when I see the 1999 woodstock revival, I hardly remember half of those bands names... I guess money has taken over talent...
