I'm also past caring about things like why Neil Young won't reissue Time Fades Away, or what someone's favourite Jimi Hendrix song is. The adventure of hearing it the first time is most likely to carry the weight for me, not the repeated listenings. For me it's far more interesting to enjoy music happening in the moment than listening to a captured moment.
But 'captured' music is just music that was recorded when it was 'happening in the moment'. Music is music. It's irrelevant when it was made or by whom. Just enjoy it in whatever form/time it arrives.
