btw i meant to sayy that i accept the majority of what SR says about the hcc, it's interesting and descriptively sound in the fundamentals seemingly, no? ... the sketchy part is how he continues to try to use it 1] to make aesthetic valuations of tunes and genres more recent 2]makes claims about...

all of htis makes sense but one premiss in this discusion i don't hear very often questioned is this: what the fuck is so theoretical about SR's hcc account anyway? It's a description of a tradition, of a moment (bunch of years), genres emerging from genres, accounts of groups of people...
