Critics pan it, public buys it

Now this article entitled New Age Music hits the big time from United Press International from February 1987 is a treasure chest for all new age music fans – but beware, you might get a little melancholic too. It is a statement about the sudden and massive popularity of new age music in the mid/late 1980s. Quote:

Critics pan New Age Music as compositionally inferior. Store owners don’t know where to display its album. People buy it.

Oh, do they buy it.

Today? Well… The problem is not the new age music genre. It is the whole business that’s compositionally inferior.
