Do you all agree when Prince said the 60s, 70s and 80s were the golden ages of music?


So I came across this interview today and it dates back to 2011. Prince felt the 60s-80s were the golden ages of music when artists played their instruments, wrote their own songs and actually had to perform (those were his reasons).

I posted it and if you watch from 7:40 you’ll see what I mean.

Oh my God, yes! Although only in my teens to 25 yrs old in the 80s, I can still remember sitting on a couch and thinking "The amount of real talent coming out of the woodwork is NOT normal". I didn't even think that deeply then, yet it was undeniable. Act after act could REALLY sing. No autotune or pitch correction. And the 70's? The Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, and on and on...
The 60's? So amazing as we see modern music forming more than ever. But the 90's and 2000's were commercial BS radio play to my ears. As a lover of rock, and hard rock, luckily the past 5 years has had some amazing gems mixed in with the trash! But yes ...60s, 70s, and 80s were the Golden years imo.
