Was born in 1956, so the 1970s carried me through high school and college.
I feel cheated. The 1970s had the worst music imaginable, from utter dreck like Captain & Tenille to embarrasingly silly glitter rock to complete shit like disco. Yes, there were a few good bands and some epic songs, but that was the minority in the music world. TV sucked 100%. Love Boat. Mork & Mindy. Laverne & Shirley. The Brady Bunch. The only thing worth watching was reruns of Bugs Bunny cartoons. Cars were ugly. Clothing fashion was retarded. Interior design style was a joke. I cannot hate the 1970s enough. The 1980s were awesome, and a much-needed antidote. |

I was born in 60. Music to me was more of a semi decade thing. Around '65 to around the late 70s generally kicked ass. Then disco and pop country started to take over in the mid 70s for the next several years which sucked ass.
There was a decent amount of good music from then into the mid to late 80s that was almost obscured by all the hair "metal " bullshit ,which at the time was about as bad as the disco and pop country from 10 years before. The 90s came along and it was like a breath of fresh air. |

Everyone was about as messed up as any generation before or since in one way or another but we weren't compelled, nor had the means, to broadcast our every thought or emotion to the world like people do today. |
