If I had a time machine, I would go back to 1976-1983 era new york. Just an intensely creative period, so many things going on. Punk, no wave, all the art movements, birth of hip hop, etc.

Manchester in the 78-84 era methinks.

I was always under the impression the music from Manchester in the late 70s was as good as it was because it was inspired by the place itself being a total shithole back then.

That's what I've always been led to believe from the bands that came from that time & place anyway.

I like 90s Seattle... I would have liked to seen Nirvana live in their early years. But prefer NY late 80s early 90s, would have been cool to get a glimpse of that hip-hop.

But plenty of shi tholes don't spawn any interesting music.
