Do you hear 60's and 70's artists playing or singing 90's 00's hits?

Why limit it to 60s and 70s? Speaking to the oldtimers, it's clear popular music had already gone to s**t by then. You have to go back another generation - and there we find Sinatra's "Duets" with all manner of 80s/90s pop stars. Ditto Pavarotti. Johnny Cash doing Depeche Mode and Nine Inch Nail covers (absolutely brilliantly, I might add). Just recently Paul Anka(!) coming back from the dead with covers of (amongst other things) The Cure, Van Halen and Nirvana.

As for Eric Clapton, if he is so concerned about crap music, he should stop recycling his own crap and put out something listenable. He's become like a post-Disney Elton John with a guitar, a total caricature of what he once was. Dylan is threatening to do the same, which really pisses me off because I adore the cantankerous old bugger.
