Best music decade

[squirtyflower]

Having seemingly touched a nerve over Tolmie's over reliance on poor 80s bands I thought I'd start a thread on the best music decade

For me it is the Seventies
From the heavy rock of Deep Purple, Humble Pie, Led Zeppelin.....
To the progressive rock of Pink Floyd, Genesis, Yes, Gong, Caravan...
the rebirth of the Stones, Bob Dylan...
The American rock of Bruce Springsteen, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Aerosmith....
Through to the American new wave of New York Dolls and the Ramones
To the explosion that was punk with the Pistols, the Clash, the Jam, the Damned, Buzzcocks
And the emergence of Joy Division and the Cure

Whilst filling the airwaves and charts with glam rock of TRex, Slade, Sweet, Rod Stewart and Roxy Music.

I hate disco and soul so I've deliberately left them out

Stuff your 80s New Romantics, U2 and the Roses one decent album up your arses.

The 80s.
We had the new romantics, U2 and a great debut album from the sublime stone roses.
Fuckin fannytastic.

Easily the 50s/60s...Rhythm & Blues in the 50s...followed by soul in the 60s

50s



60s

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Madchester era,and Brit pop era nothing comes close,wasn't around in the sixties so there you go.

Hard to argue with that to be fair.

60's were fabulous (Beatles/Stones/Kinks/Yardbirds/Traffic/Syd Floyd/The Who/Cream/Hendrix/Sweet Soul Music)

But 70's my favourite due to progressive Rock and bands like CSN&Y

Oh and 70's disco
