disco was sickeningly self similar and crassly commercial. Nothing of that era suffice as "classics" The disco era was a musical dead zone with few memorably artiste or songs.

50's was insipid whitey music with its only spark the hits they stole from black artists. 60 was a flowering of our greatest music that got poisoned by disco. the 80's was perhaps the greatest era of musical creativity that began in the mid seventies and continues until today. Music today is democratic. It reverted to the artists doing what they can on their own and gaining popularity on their own fan base and not through glitzy marketing.

I liked the 60s and 70s. Got lots of CDs from the 70 and some from the 60s. Nat King Cole, Drifters, Elvis and many country music(wife's). Have lots of the 70s.

I agree. The eighties had great music. Maybe it was good or maybe it was because we were coming of age. I saw a downward trend starting in the 90s.

It's the aging process! I remember an old uncle of mine saying music took a nose-dive in the 70's! His last hero was Englebert! He always played for his wife, "Please Release Me!" And she would respond, Go To Hell!!
