IIRC, Dvorak wrote his first good piece of music after 30.

Linear Phase


Bonnie Rate (spelling) was 40 or very near it, when she got famous.   Also..  uh, "If it makes you happy, it can't be that bad,"  Name escaping me right now..   was well into her 30s.




but we are not living in that type of music industry anymore..   That is why you see major record companies only pushing kids..   Like Justin Bieber, and Taylor Swift and whatever.. 

meh, I don't want to get into it

Peace

This could not be more wrong.  Bonnie indeed had a resurgence in her forties but she was very famous even in her twenties.

You have attempted to correct Linear Phase on an internet forum.  LP has verified your correction using his secret powers of Google Search.  He has indeed verified that B. Rait released an album in her 20s, but could not verify fame.


You have lost 20 Imperial Credits.

I can't imagine why any one would purposely want to be famous...

Why did she release Mr. Bum?  Was she holding Al Bum hostage?  Was she kicking Al out 'cause he was a Bum?  What gives here?  And why would she become famous just for releasing Al?  Was Al a one-time star or something?  We needs to know!!!

myolpal is right, from age 22 to 30 Bonnie released 7 albums.


Please remit 20 Imperial Credits back to said Mr. 'Pal and another 10 as "LP is Foolish" restitution.

You've got to learn to read "the whole page" there Linear Phase, ol pal.

Bonnie had the cover of the Rolling Stone in the late seventies and back then that was about as famous as a rock n roller got here in the good ol USofA.  She was also very well known to all the players...i.e. Clapton, Harrison, McCartney, Lennon, Richards, etc... in Britan at the time. 

Bonnie is the real deal and has been famous since she was in her early twenties.  If she isn't now, she will be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and that's not just for her few albums with Don Was.

But just take my imperial credits and buy the house a round.  Yor own self included:-)
