Of the choices offered I eould agree the 60’s, but it was the 50’s that lead to 60’s. I’m most comfortable with a mix of 50’s and 60’s, because it was the time of my youth. Never mess with someone’s music or books of their youth.

Your taste agrees the most so far with me. I think there was a more gentle, romantic, balladic period through the 50’s, then the music roughened up with less pleasant harmony, less sophisticated music, cruder lyrics, scruffy looking performers, groups with weird names.

It’s sad that excellent composers, musicians and performers waste their skills on crap just for fame and money.

Me too.
