I feel bad for Generation X and The Millennial's


Us Baby boomers were grateful to have experienced the best era for rock/soul/pop/jazz/funk from 1964 thru 1974. We were there at the right age. Motown, Stax, Atlantic, Hi Records and then look at the talent we had. The Beatles, Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Sam Cooke, Jimi Hendrix, Queen, James Brown, Rolling Stones, The Doors, Herbie Hancock, John Coltrane, Wes Montgomery,  T Rex etc. Such an amazing creative explosion in music, nothing can beat that era.

I feel bad for the younger crowd Generation X and Millennials who missed it and parents playing their records for you it isn't the same experience, seeing these artists live years after their prime also isn't the same.

Kinda like how people my parents' age felt bad for me because I liked the Beatles and not Perry Como. 

Whatever.... more of the same old my generations music is/was better than your generations music. We all missed Mozart, Bach, Beethoven, etc. 

The younger generation can access more music in one hour than a baby boomer could sample between '64 and '74.
