Same here. I didn’t appreciate the great variety of music in the late sixties and the seventies. From top 40 to Motown to prog rock to heavy metal, soul, art rock... So much great stuff. We were spoiled.
Now all there is is auto-tuned dance music and rap.
I liked most everything back then. The Dead, Zeppelin, Clapton, Dylan, and Hendrix were my favorites. I didn’t get into most of the keyboard oriented bands-Yes, Pink Floyd, Genesis, The Doors, etc. With all of the crap that is popular today, I’d love to see a 16 year old’s reaction to Electric Ladyland, Wheels of Fire, or Zeppelin I, II, III, or IV.
