It would be a year from 1967 to 1971 for me.

Just off the top of my head, right now, I'll go with 1967.

Whatever year it currently is, because then I'd have a constant supply of new music to listen to and it'd be a pretty interesting experience.

That goes against the parameters Mord has set forth in his title of this thread. It's like saying pick one number between one and ten you pick infinity.
