But Beatles, Kinks, Bowie, Zepplin, Queen, Elton John, yeah that was the ultimate time.
I wasn't even old enough to listen to music at that point, but I still love it now.

1986-1996
had everything....... thrash metal, death metal, stoner rock, grunge, madchester, acid house, techno, big beat, drun n bass, U.S college rock, post punk, anarcho punk, psy-trance, shoeglaze, brit pop. hip hop, hardcore
sure it wasnt all good, but you could pick your style and have a thriving, often underground scene..............for a teenager what more could you ask for

Re: Best musical generation?
I get the feeling everyone is just going to quote the 10 years between when they were 12 and 22.
Am I right?

Re: Best musical generation?
The point I was making was you are most passionate about music between the ages of 12 and 22.
So I love the Beatles, Kinks etc, but I was born in 1970. It just so happened we had loads of Beatles and Kinks records in the house.
Actually theres another title for a thread, who is you favourite composer/band. And why ?

Re: Best musical generation?
Yeah i'd agree, but say probably more centred around the 80's as the most influential decade of music. Whilst the 50s inspired rock and roll, the 60s perfected pop music and the 70s rock music the 80s took it all and turned it on it's head. Two of the biggest music styles were invented during the 80s, well hip hop was technically the late 70s but much of the inspirational music came out during the 80s, and house music with its many offshoots was born out of disco. These two now dominate the music scene globally.
