music was better in the US during the 90s...
the 80s had some of the greatest stuff of all time - the jam, minor threat, early r.e.m., the smiths...
it's impossible to define decades as musical eras after the 60s really. there's plenty of new and innovative music around still.

You're right Youth, I couldn't imagine music history without Status Quo and Bananarama.

Although Status Quo were more successful in the 70s weren't they?
That sort of makes my semi-ironic statement a bit pointless

How about Genesis?
Stuff they had out in the 70s was largely brilliant, then the 80s came around and they became shite.
Must have been something in the water in that decade.

Actually I am basing my Genesis example on hearsay.
I am not at all familiar with their output.

The music you remember the most and love is normally in the era when you were a 'youth' or when you went out a lot 'dancing or whatever you call it these days', not in every case of course because some older classics never die. So the music I will always love will be late 60s, 70s especially and early 80s. |

british soul at its best, carleen anderson once dj at my club and sang live over this song, i had some headphones on as i was djing and had just her vocal dead loud in my ears, without doubt one of the highlights of my life, it was like having an angel in my ear, fucking incredible voice.

That pretty much sums it Dell, and SY is correct with his points too IMO. |

If anyone hasn't watched the 'Seven Ages of Rock' (BBC) I thoroughly recommend it.

This is a classic
Brilliant shout Si, one of my personal 90's favourites that. If we're talking the prodigy (as gazzza was) I prefer the earlier stuff.
