I remember reading somewhere in the late 90s a complaint that “none of today’s bands have a knowledge of music that goes back more than ten years,” or words to that effect. In that case, I thought, why do Embrace sound like Badfinger?

I can’t remember which Embrace song it was but Badfinger’s was either, or both, of these.
