Appeal of music
draws fans, critics
Music —possibly one
of mankind’s oldest vices —
proves infectious and costly
By Ryan Nyburg
Senior Pulse Reporter
Humans have been making music
for the entirety of recorded history.
The oldest known
musical instru
ment, a flute made
of bone, dates
back at least
43,000 years.
Since then, hu
mans have been
compulsively cre
ating and consum
ing music. Accord
ing to the
Recording Indus
try Association of
America, total
compact disc sales
in 2002 were more
than $12 billion.
All of this begs
the question: Can
music be addictive?
Local retailers might
have the answer.
"1 think you can
get addicted to
anything," Cat's Meow Jazz and
Blues owner Jeffrey Ogburn said.
"As addictions go, it's not a bad
one. 1 never get tired of it and it
doesn t hurt my liver.
Ogburn, whose store is located at
122 East Broadway, is one of many lo
cal music retailers who believe in the
addictive power of recorded sound.
"It's infectious," said Sarge, manag
er of Face The Music at 886 East 13th
Ave. "There is a song for every mo
ment in the day. I see it as a willful at

tempt to sound
track our own
lives."
As with oth
er local retail
ers, Sarge, who
prefers to go
by one name,
considers him
self addicted
to music.
"Because of
the access I
have I get really
absorbed into
every genre,"
Sarge said.
Other retail
ers have similar
experiences.
"I can get re
ally into a
record and just
listen to it over
and over tor weeks, said Greg
Sutherland, a buyer from House of
Records, located at 258 East 13th

VICE BRIEF
Music appreciation
can lead to elitism
Musical elitism is a vice beyond
rehabilitation for some. Groups of
friends usually have at least one per
son who pushes his or her music
like a car salesman, but not all mu
sic enthusiasts are as extreme as Jack
Black in "High Fidelity."
"I love obsessing over records,"
Lane Community College student
Jazpur Leigh said. "But I think snob
biness is wrong because no one can
1 define quality without injecting
their own opinion."
Many of these music fanatics can
be found in record stores.
"Ihere are times when I'd absolutely
love to crucify them," I louse of Records
employee Garrett Brown said of music
elitists. "But it's just a matter of taste.
There's probably a lot of crap I like."
In an era of pop culture, some argue
that popular trends sometimes need
criticism and that tolerance is an im
portant aspect of music appreciation.
"I'm an elitist, but I'm not a
snob," Face the Music employee
Meghan Leighton said. "I'm not go
ing to be rude if 1 think their taste is
bad. I'm a person before I'm a mu
sic lover."
Some music elitists firmly believe
in a musical hierarchy.
"(Elitism) definitely does have its
place," Brown said. "Just like bad
music has its place."
