I feel bad for GenX'ers that missed out on the 60s and 70s.


I feel sad for GenX'ers and millennials that missed out on two of the greatest decades for music. The 60s and 70s. 

Our generation had Aretha Franklin, Etta James, James Brown, Beatles, Queen, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, David Bowie, Joni Mitchell, Otis Redding, Sam Cooke, Jimi Hendrix, Donna Summer, Earth Wind and Fire, Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles, The Kinks, The Stones, The Doors, Elton John, Velvet Underground and loads more

We saw these legends live during their peak, concert tickets were cheaper, music was the everything to youth culture, we actually brought album on a vinyl format (none of that crappy CDs or whatever the kids call it).

60s-70s were the greatest time to be a music fan.

Oh sweet child, 60s and 70s? Give me a break! I feel sorry for you boomers that missed out on the real music of the 30s and 40s.

You post war generation that had everything handed to you on a silver platter will never understand the golden years of swing and big band, the birth of stars like Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald. There will never be another period in music that's as influential as those decades were.

Anyone with an iota of taste know for a fact that 30s and 40s were indisputably the best time to be a music fan.
