Thanks for posting this quote, I love it so much. It immediately made me think of songwriting and it sums up an entire philosophy in a moment. Fantastic.

Re Van Halen, their first 4 albums are consecutive home runs, certainly more densely packed with fine tunes than the AC/DC albums you’ve noted.
Diver Down was a place holding album, still with some bangers, and finally we have 1984. So- they didn’t quite best Zeppelin, but they did best AC/DC.

The Quietus,
With all due respect and a bit of affection, sometimes you promote a style of writing which advances big statements or pretzelly florid prose over the sort of deep consideration which results in simply great writing.
