Answer 3

I gotta say 90' sand now becasue thats pretty much the only time I've been alive. 80's were ok with a lot of dance songs, disco in the 70's weren't that great, but classic rock from there is great.
Recently the only thing people think about music now is all the Sh*t thats been on MTV and the radio, but the less common bands are good. Even some popular rock/metal bands out now are great.

Answer 4

Probably the 1950s. It was the melting pot that determined how popular music was going to be for the next half century. Swing was at it's peak at the start, but gradually wound down. Melody reigned supreme as some of the best of Cole Porter, Jerome Kern and Richard Rogers were written then. The electric guitar became the pop stars instrument of choice and jump jive developed into real rock and roll. As I re-read this, yes I am convinced...definately the 1950s.

Answer 5

I'm stuck in the 80's too. And if I hear another slaughtered remake of the songs I love, I'm going to scream. The Bolshoi, The Cure, Billy Idol (by the way I keep hearing this really awful new version of Dancing With Myself sung in a very soft, slow female voice to a calypso beat -- Billy should sue!), U2 (Sunday Bloody Sunday of course), Souxie and the Banshees, Erasure, Romeo Void, B-52s, The Cult. Can't get enough. I gave up on trying to replace all my old albums with CDs, Yahoo! LaunchCast Plus has them all!

Answer 6

I think late 60's early 70's. I was born in the 80's but not to into the music! I should have lived during the 70's!

Answer 7

I'm just listening to a Keraang compilation of current bands (New Breed) and I have to say that NOW is the best time. And yes I was there in the 70s, 80s, 90s. Bands now have listened to all of that music and ingested it.

But ignore radio/MTV - the music is there if you want to find it

Answer 8

Depends what you like or what you grew up with. For traditional Rock, you would probably say the 1960's, and for The Big Band Swing Sound, the 30's or 40's.

Answer 9

I love late 60's early 70's music. Classic rock. The Doors, Lynard Skynard, The Who, the Grateful Dead. etc.

Answer 10

The 70s by far... , we have folk, progressive, funk, hard rock, metal, adult contemporary, punk, pop, disco all existing in in a space of 10 years. We even have the beginnings of new wave (with Blondie interpretation of dance and punk) and grunge (thanks to neil young) and hip-hop (Sugar Hill Gang). Think about it ...they moved from the end of the Beatles, to Zeppelin, to Donna Summers, to Al Green, to James Taylor to The Clash. And so much more inbetween. It was so dynamic.
