So again, the very things that the digital 'revolution' seems to promote are, if anything, more like a return to the principals of rock n roll than any kind of departure from them.

I concur with yr statement regarding 45's and that being the original format of RnR
album oriented rock was a more recent phenomenon
I think you misunderstand me when I talk about songs being released too quickm without having the kinks worked out.
I love technical playing mistakes in recordings. that does not bother me becuase that is reality, and no truly live performance is ever free from "alterations" of some kind (mistakes, improvs, rhythm changes, faster tempo etc.)
what I mean is the actual songwriting craft, the time needed to live with a song you wrote and realize the chorus does not work, or the bridge is too short and stilted, or that the verses would be better flipped, or that maybe you need some cowbell.
I feel that rushing to release songs jkust because you got them recorded does a disservice to the songs themselves.
