I said "decade". The music of the decade of the 70's was better than the 80's or 90's IMHO. Take a look at the "charts" and they will prove me right. I think RAP led the charts from 85 to today.
No, Rap hardly led the charts. It may have really started then but it was still mostly fringe stuff.

As was "metal" and "hair" and all that other so-called music. Hair and metal bands did not rule, either. Never did, never will. Too bad so many people on the 'net can't see that. http://www.angelfire.com/wa2/heepsplace/revisionism.html
