For roots-oriented musicians, who believe that the best new music is born from the old, such a generation gap appears to be a problem.  Not everybody likes the same kind of music, but you don't have to like a particular style of music to have some form of appreciation for its influence, or its value in serving as the breeding ground for new forms of music.  But I understand where you're coming from.  I used to hate a lot of country music that, over the years, I've come to appreciate, and, in some cases, love. 

Yes, it's Sir Paul.  And yes, you were pretty observant to recognize Pink Floyd in the picture.  It was not an accident that traces of the Beatles and Pink Floyd were juxtaposed against a big cowboy hat and a western attire.  Historically, country music and rock cannot be seen as anything but inseparable.  At least that's my opinion. 

As always, I appreciate your intelligent comments and your unique perspective. 

Why is it a problem ?.... some people like country and some don't.... I was born and raised here and I don't like country... it's no big deal.... BTW is that Macca peering out from behind you in the pic ?

Edit - Never mind, I see it is Sir Paul once I enlarged the pic - Nice DSOTM shirt... Pink Floyd... now that's my kind of music !!!
