And there were alot of great bands on that list. The 80's were better than the 60's, close with the 70's, and weaker than the 90's and 00's (although Im most likely hyping up the 00's to be better than it is because its the only decade I've lived through and had an unhealthy music obsession).

Sorry, better than the 60's.

Are people supposed to get excited about this generic 60s list?

Zombeels

Well I can see why people like shltty 80's music when they don't like 60's music.

Maybe because they have a different opinion than you.

I do like 60s music. I just thought your list didn't make a very convincing argument for the 60s being so amazing. As I said it seemed like a really generic list.

I first started buying music in the mid 80s and I certainly don't remember it being hard to find good music. It's true people back then didn't have the internet resources we have now (which of course was also true in the 70s, 60s, 50s, etc., even the most of the 90s) but college radio was a big source of music exposure for me as was the fairly wide variety of music magazines at the time. If you wanted something you didn't see on the shelves of your local music store, you just ordered it. It wasn't that hard. And keep in mind that there were actually more little local music stores back then than there are now, since MP3s have pretty much killed that industry.

I love '60s music. However, these days, I'd rather listen to these bands over most of the ones you listed:

Jesus & Mary Chain
The Violent Femmes
The Stone Roses
The Happy Mondays
The Pixies
The Smiths
House Of Love
Public Image Ltd.
Joy Division
New Order
Echo & The Bunnymen
Blondie
The Cure
The Go-Betweens
The Minutemen
Sonic Youth
Magazine
Aztec Camera
The Meat Puppets
The Mekons
Gang Of Four
The Fall

The '80s had tons of great music. Every time I think I know which decade was my favourite, I think of a ton of great bands in another decade that changes my mind.
