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

@bdp24:

"The problem now is not that there isn’t enough "good music" (define as you wish) being made, but rather that there is so much of it! It’s not on radio or TV, but so what?"

Yes-- there seem to be a lot of Boomers these days who complain about the supposed "lack of good music" who are simply too lazy to do anything beyond turning on a radio!  (Not that logging onto Spotify requires much effort!) 

@discopants:

"OK Boomer"

As a Boomer, myself, I don't tend to welcome this expression but in this case I have to say the OP fully deserves it!

They can hear 60s and 70s music (well early 70s anyway) for another 50 or 60 years if they want to.  We've only got a couple of decades left.
At best.

I have three sons in their mid-thirties and they listen to the same music to which I listen, particularly Beatles, Beach Boys, Steely Dan and ELO.

When the Beatles first came to the states, my parents started off saying things like “you want to buy a record by bugs?” to words I can’t say here! Although my mom ended up liking Carol King and Abba.  My sister actually took her to see Mamma Mia and she really enjoyed it.

Boomer here.
Yes I regularly went to concerts, relatively cheaply, including The Who, Led Zeppelin, Jethro Tull, Jimi Hendrix, The Beach Boys,  Buddy Guy, Pink Floyd, Albert Collins, Jefferson Airplane, Alice Cooper, Cream, Janis Joplin, The Temptations, Eagles, Bonnie Raitt, etc, etc, etc.  I also remember paying 21 cents a gallon for gasoline. Let's not forget that I was making $1.60 to $4.00 and hour during those times, so no, the concerts were not cheap.
For me, those were a time of coming of age. Growing up, learning new things, getting new freedoms with a great soundtrack is indeed a great memory.
To think that I'm in the only generation to have such an experience would be pompous and closed minded.
GenX had great music, spiraling inflation and a generation of great music behind their own...so they had a larger library to choose from for their "coming of age soundtrack".
I never have delved deeply into music from the 50's...not my thing. You can keep "good golly miss molly" and the like. If anything genX had it better with the previous music being available.
Feeling bad for GenX amounts to looking down your nose at them and placing higher importance on the music of one's own generation over any others. I say BS.
