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.

of a teen-ager forever ?

That's a nice start. They missed out on seeing ELVIS up close for 12 bucks. 
The music of our youth is the music that changed the world. I can't say the change was for the better, but there'll never be another generation come down the pike that includes an Elvis and The Beatles and Sinatra and Miles Davis, John Coltrane, David Bowie. These young twits have 'Ok Boomer' and 'Netflix & Chill', which I can't say I'm not a little jealous of.
