Description

As the Rolling Stones drag themselves through yet another American tour, Cher once again makes a comeback, and Yes plays gambling resorts, Strausbaugh reflects acidly on a generation that started out as self-anointed world-changers and ended up as short-changers of the ideals for a parody now known as 'colostomy rock.'
