No it is the 201*s and the same thing still applies. I agree there are
many sound or recording engineers who play well. I agree there are many
musicians who can do good recordings in their home studio... but I would
still say that large number of people is a small percentage of the total
of "musicians" (even assuming 10%ish).
I think because of our (people on this list) interests and therefore the
people we look at and look at their work, we see more of that small number
of people who do both well and to us it looks big. Do ask people who run
recording studios for profit what they think of musicians technical
abilities in general. Most studios ignore these things... see Spectre
Sound Studios youtube channel for the large number of posts about "stupid
musician texts" for just a few examples. (viewer comments too) Though I
think he gets some of the very worst ones (I wouldn't call them
"average").
