Certainly true and will be as long as there are humans.  I still can't shake 
the conclusion that the original prog-rock decade was a pretty much 
unparalleled age of innovation arising from a diverse blend of musical 
influences with new technology and the geopolitics of the era adding their 
own flavors to the blend.
