You ain’t kidding, but it looks like they were off by 100k:

Tuned into some Amazon show about a group of early twenty-something tech nerds...and the first song I hear is Motown. This happens a lot.
Glenn Miller, Artie Shaw, Les Brown, etc.
Thanks, Feral Roots...nice song and video. That song sounds like it could have been done anytime from 1969 - 1972 or so.
I’ll explore further later on.
This article really made me happy because I was beginning to feel like an old fuddyduddy.
Wow! We (not me; I’ve got zero musical talent myself, but I know what I like) really had something going in those days, didn’t we?
Rap is awful. So angry and hateful. And the pop songs of today sound like they were created by a software program and not humans.
The 1964-1985 period was the best musicwise
I actually really liked "Trespass", even if it was before Phil and Steve came on board, "The Knife" and "Stagnation" are two of my favorite Genesis songs.
Here’s a couple of my favorites.

Golly! Where are all the rap “songs”?
I saw The Beatles live in concert. My ticket cost $4.50.
Yes, add to that Tommy and Jimmy Dorsey, Harry James and the amazing Kay Kyser!
Excellent rant! Hard to argue with it.
Right on! I can dig it!
Led Zeppelin. 1972. Row 12, floor seat
$7.50
I think TV/commercials use older music because after a certain amount of time it is legal... Remember 1st time hearing Led Zepplin for Cadillac commercial - knew I was old..
Have you listened to Lightfoot’s song “Sundown”?
“Too Bad” is my favorite from the new album. Seeing them in April. Can’t wait.
My son caught the XTC bug from me, from hearing me play their CDs in the car.
