jmohme Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 I think just the opposite. All of the best music was made between 1975 and 1985, mostly in the early 80's. ABC to ZZ Top and in the middle you have everything from Blondie and the Talking Heads, to the Ramones and Sex Pistols, to Bauhaus and Sisters of Mercy, to Quiet Riot, Judas Priest and Ozzy. Greatest time for music since the late 60's. I guess we all just have tastes for the music of different eras. There definitely was some good music from the 80s, but most of it did little for me. I do have to mention that I get some grief from others about ZZ Top, since I really do not care for them while living just a few miles away from LaGrange Texas. My wifes champion show horse even belonged to Franks wife. Oh well. My opinion of them isn't going to have an effect on their success one way or the other.

Oldandtreacherous Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 I didn't have big hair but I did have hair. Eventful decade. Work in Central America (experienced getting shot at, and btw it's not as much fun as TR apparently thought), finished college and grad school, married the love of my life, went all peace and love. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tous Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 This is interesting. How much does popular culture during our formative years, say around twelve years old through high school, influence our adult years? I can easily recall themes from TV shows of the 1950s and 1960s, yet I find it hard to place many of the TV shows noted in this thread in a timeline. Note that in my era, Barbara Eden was forbidden to show her navel and Rob and Laura Petrie had separate beds, attitudes that seemed absurd just ten years later. Do you still subscribe to attitudes and popular cliches and phrases from your youth, even 30-40 years later? I often wonder how my parents saw the rise in popularity of television when their entertainment experiences were through radio programs. Okay. Done thinking. Time for a Geritol milkshake and a nap. :supergrin: 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
