If you were here when we last embarked on this quest, you may remember the "Carlos Santana reworks the 'Black Magic Woman' riff while an overexposed singer warbles nearby" formula, which is one that Sony Music Entertainment has been flogging since Rob Thomas sang about oceans and moons some 11 years ago. But 2010 brought an even crasser take on that equation into the world, and we probably have the late-aughts success of Guitar Hero and albums by the likes of Shinedown to thank. ![]()
