From Wayne Brown

Very well said and agreed on each point you mentioned.I`ve still got those old "Billboard Charts" from the mid 60`s but what you mentioned here really did take me for a ride down memory lane...thanks.Wayne

I agree. Nice argument for 1964. I was unaware of when Satchmo did Wonderful World, as well. And Motown machine. Wow, so much happening. Classic music bursting at the seams.

I like a lot of the funky soul and R&B music from the early 70's. Bill Withers Stevie Wonder, etc.. but I also enjoyed it when the hair metal bands went away in the late 80's early 90's and we had Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, etc.. It was nice to get some raw rock & roll again.

Yah, it would appear a lot of us are focusing on the 60's and 70's because that's when most of us here were honing our chops, but the 60's and 70's stand out musically for other reasons. Let me throw this out for argument....

No other decades since the 60's and 70's saw such a wide range of Rock diversity and Pop evolution.

Deansdrums paints a good picture of 1964, but look at the evolution of pop music from 1960 to 1969. We enter the 60's with Elvis, the Everly Bros, Chubby Checker, Sam Cooke, and the Ventures, and we leave the decade with the Summer of Love and Woodstock; Hendrix, The Who, Stones, Black Sabbath, Cream. Huge difference going out of the decade than coming in.

And the 70's saw heavy hitters Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Aerosmith, Alice Cooper, Queen and AC/DC playing concurrently with Disco, Punk, and Funk. What other subsequent decades have demonstrated such diversity and changes in Rock? Sure, Jazz and Folk thrived continuously through all the decades as the quiet relatives sitting at the far end of the Thanksgiving table, but as far as Rock goes, I just don't see anything revolutionary or innovative happening after 1980.

Now let loose your arrows of disagreement.

I agree with 64 too. But, the best thing that happened to/with music in 64 was me being born. HeeHee. Music is the beat of my heart. : )
