Nothing comes close these days to the music of the 1960s

[Laan Yaa Mo]

The 1950s surpasses it. I am sure one can find a decade when classical music/opera surpasses both the '50s and 60s.

The 1950s surpasses it. I am sure one can find a decade when classical music/opera surpasses both the '50s and 60s.

I suppose it depends on how you classify or what you are looking for in music.

For me, the music of the 60's and even the 70s was written more by those who made the Band, with individual and more meaningful lyrics and was not music manufactured by corporate style entities, as it was in later decades and is now.

It was an era when individuals were free to develop their own styles of music and were not told what they had to put on a recording. It was also an era where musicians could replicate their songs on stage and when individuals had their own distinct voices, which is not something you cannot say about later / modern day artists.

I suspect the test of time is also one measure of how good the music as back in the 60's and 70's when many of the modern-day movies, series and the like, have to revert to using the actual songs or at least the lyrics from the 60s & 70s in their production Soundtracks.

Yes I also enjoy opera and was fortunate be at one of the performances of The Three Tenors, 20 plus years ago. But, I don't think it is fair to even try and compare the music of the Pavarotti's of the World to that of the Rolling Stones or Led Zeppelin. All of them left their mark in history.

Just the way that I see it

Your first three paragraphs also apply to the birth and growth of rock and roll in the '50s. In 1956 Elvis exploded on the scene in the U.S. and Canada, but before him you had Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Fats Domino and later Buddy Holly writing and performing their own music. We can't forget the contribution of Jerry Lee to rock and roll either. The '60s was important too; however, I grew up in the 1950s and that's the era that is tops for me. It must have been a great experience to hear the three tenors.

Like that, Whistler. This has always been my favorite flash mob piece.
