MIND CONTROL - ANCIENT AND MODERN
Ancient Greece denounced and even prosecuted musicians who attempted to “control the minds” of their audience. Today, there is an overt attempt on behalf of many high-profile and not so high-profile artists to do the same. Mik Jagger in an interview in 1968 on CBS Television said: "We are moving after the minds, and so are most of the new groups”. When in 1969 a piece entitled Sympathy for the Devil caused injuries and deaths he said "something like that happens every time I play that song." Is this a problem? Data indicates a great many cases that are believed to be linked to certain music. Let me cite some data.
