368 - Here are some groups that I have listened to

Here are some groups that I have listened to,
And still do, now and then, for old times’ sake:
Slade, Sweet, Roxy Music, Sparks, Status Quo,
Yes, Genesis, Led Zeppelin. Mistake!
I thought, switching to punk, a complete break.
Then Siouxsie and the Banshees, Magazine,
Buzzcocks and Joy Division. Then the fake
Bands came, so I checked out the 60s scene:
The Doors of course, the Byrds I heard; has-been
Beatles, Velvets and Love sounded as new,
And reggae, dance and soul iced this great cake,
While rap, house and electro shook my spleen.
Britpop, it stopped the boredom, hip hop too;
Indie ain’t dying; jazz makes my sax shake.
