@rinkydinkydoink He used to be only hard rock. Now he has gotten into jazz-fusion.

Do you mean those who are now in their seventies? If so then they were born between 1945 and 1955 by the time the oldest were in their mid-teens the music was rock and roll, by the time the youngest were in their mid-teens Woodstock and the Isle of Wight festival had already happened and music was prog rock, metal was big, my grandmother over sixty was a Stones fan.
When I was working I had older colleagues who were Hendrix fans.

I made the post as if I were a lot younger person fed up with all the adulation The Beatles (for example) still garner.
I'm actually one of those people in their seventies who loved music from their teen years and a lot earlier. My parents were born at the beginning of the twentieth century and my four late sisters were born from 1925 to 1936. I was named after a long-gone and forgotten opera baritone.

@rinkydinkydoink Ah, I thought you were referring to the stereotypical old people music like Bing Crosby, Dean Martin, Doris Day, Vera Lynn, etc.

I know this is a light hearted post but I remember being on holiday and watching TOTP and song after song that I had never heard before came on that were absolutely fantastic. The one I remember most was Muscle Bound by Spandau Ballet which had an artsy video that came with it. I need to follow this up now but I think it must've been a May Bank holiday in 1981.

@rinkydinkydoink I was listening to the radio where a football commentator spoke about The Hit Parade! He was roundly mocked by the other commentator at which point they went 'Top 10' and finally settled for 'The Charts' as the place to find the latest music.

Actually - so do I. I had 4 older sisters who had the old stuff on 78s then 45s - from the big bands right up to the Brit Invasion...

@rinkydinkydoink I don't call that punishment because you are right. I'd watch him on TV as a kid. My biggest memory is that guy sweats a lot
But then again so was Link Wray ahead of his time.
Fuzz, Tremolo and reverb. Controversial and banned by some stations. A huge influence on guitar players to follow. I was all of 4 years old.

Absolutely not. 40s-90s is all the best stuff
