Golden age of vinyl recordings?

I know that for a period of time recording studios used analog equipment to make records. Eventually this switched to solid state. What period of time were the best vinyl recordings made? It doesn't matter what genre of music. I just want to know what to look for. I currently listen to classic rock and blues but am open to expanding my horizons (i.e. classical or jazz). Thanks.

Current Berlin rent is quite low though rising, yet I don't hear anything happening there except techno clubs. London might still have what it used to have. Just move one hour from the city and rent can be okay, just like New York. Not that convenient but not bad. 
Obscure bands, great concerts by well-known artists recorded but never released..

68-71 is a very short time period, what was happening in London then ? This is interesting.
It is always "who" but that is always connected to when and where.
"Primitive studios" are good, I want that minimally processed "live in the studio" sound.

Yeah. Never I don't know, but the way it has been going since those times probably not in the foreseeable future. Besides, tube equipment and tape decks are most likely to be extinct soon enough. Attitude is not as it used to be, things must radically change for real accomplishments.
