All I remember about the seventies is Jim Jones. There's probably other things but that I remember distinctly. And Barney Miller and the Muppet Show and Mash and the tv out on the screen porch popping in the humidity when we watched the Reds play. Some of the best music by far in the 70's, and that goes for the 60's also. There was some good stuff in the 80's, but that was about it. Am I showing my age, maybe, I still listen to moder rock, if you want to call it that, but it really sucks compared to the pioneers of rock.

Yeah. 38.Special was awesome, man. I'm not saying there wasn't good music in the seventies (Funkadelic's Maggot Brain, anyone?), but like any decade there was a metric shit ton of crap. Check out what charted in the seventies (and sixties, and any decade you'd care to examine), and it's mostly dominated by steaming piles of suck. There is great music in every decade.

Peter Frampton, anyone? Hmmm... Hair farmers in spandex started in the 70s. If they weren't a steaming pile of suck, I don't know what was.
I can't even tell you what music from the zeros will be remembered. Probably not a whole lot. Yeah, I'm old. I'll have to check with the kid to see what he thinks. He had a great decade, but middle class kids generally have it pretty good. I'm sure he'll look back on the zeros the same way I look at the 70s. It was a good time to be a dependent.
