I'm Blues and Rock & Roll. I installed a great system on my Motorcycle and when I ride down the road everyone gets to hear what I like. Some people roll up their windows. Some people start rocking out.
You're the man. Make sure you're throwing in some Southern Rock with this and we could listen to music all day together and maybe disagree on the merits of 2 songs.0 -

The mid-90s. Black, death, and doom metal just haven't been the same since. I fondly remember Deicide's Once Upon the Cross, Cannibal Corpse's The Bleeding, My Dying Bride's Turn Loose the Swans, and Emperor's Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk.0

Oh gosh this is tough... so much good music throughout a 40 year time period. It depends on my mood. My go to seems to be the 90's though. That was when I was in high school. Anything from the boy bands to the R&B and Hip Hop that was out during that decade. Groups like Smash Mouth. Sugar Ray, 311... Man I miss that decade.0

Holy crap! Someone else knows who Y&T is?!
I'd have to say absolutely the 80's. Hair bands and pop. Loved loved loved the hair bands.
Still one of my favorite songs:

It seems to me that generally speaking we are fondest of the music we grew up with, since it informs such a huge part of our cultural experience. This may be the popular music of the time, or it may be what we're exposed to at home, or a combination of both.
So while I have a definite preference for the rock music of the 60s and 70s, I also love old school country, which was my Dad's thing (along with Spike Jones!), and I was heavily influenced by a couple of my HS classmates who were jazz aficionados from early on.
As an adult, I have tried to live by the credo that was espoused by Vin Scelsa, of NY FM radio fame, who said,
"What it comes down to is this...there are three commandments: respect the elders; embrace the new; and encourage the impractical and improbable without bias."0 -
Big fan of the British Invasion1

@PropheticHeroism Opeth was my favorite band from the time they released Still Life in the late-90s. Then Heritage happened, I threw it out the window, and haven't bought an album from them since. Every time they put up a preview track from a new album, I give it a listen, just hoping that they stopped making terribly boring Jethro Tull ripoffs. Still disappointed, almost a decade later.0 -
80s and Christian Hip Hop0

Me too went to my 50th HS reunion last August, Class of 66!
I remember hearing each new Beatle song come out on the radio. I have a brother and sister who are 7/8 years older so I got to hear all the 50s Rock&Roll too.

Oh gosh, I love music. I adored the 70s disco music when I was a pre-teen/young teen. Loved Van Halen/Boston/Journey/Styx and then U2 as a teen/young adult in the 80s. In the 90s as a young mom I fell in love with DMB, continued to rock to U2 and so many other new "alternative" bands.
I love it all0
