I'm all for the quality over quantity approach myself, too... there's nothing worse than 70 to 80 minutes of constantly droning, boring music with nothing to sustain your eagerly awaiting ears...

70's Rock n Roll is the pinnacle of modern music and the recording industry in general. Don't get me wrong they was a lot of junk and crappy stuff recorded in the 70's (like there is today) but it all was forgotten by time - thank goodness. To get music as great as 70's music one has to travel back time to JS Bach.

If I remember my music history courses correctly, Bach still played in the time where music was forced into a certain structure (Baroque maybe?). Beethoven/Mozart times were much more unrestrained/etc. and allowed for much more artistic expression. Then again, you could pour 'musical subjectivity' all over this and still say that Bach played in greater times, but I'd still argue otherwise.
I still wouldn't claim the 70s were the pinnacle. |

Back in the 70s bands really experimented.
Today kids throw around the term to describe sh*tty screamo bands because they supplement a brief piano part in all the unbearably whiny bullsh*t. If I'm coming off as a cranky elitist... that's because I am.

Yes, but just because now isn't the pinnacle, and they 'experimented' per se in the seventies, why would that make it the pinnacle? It's a good argument as to why now isn't the pinnacle, but I don't think it justifies the 70s being it, considering how long music has been 'evolving'. Just trying to wrap my head around that.
