a favorite decade?, all have thier charms, but the 60s set the stage for alot of what we've been hearing ever since. a lot of the American Blues kind of recycled through the British Invasion happened during that decade, and still that's most of the music I gravitate toward.

I was a young adult in the 60s and I still like music from the 60s and 70s above more recent music so I absolutely agree.

Yes I love the music from the thirties thru the seventies. I can't understand the music of many of the other periods as they just seem to be screeming like the heavy metal and rap. There does not appear to be any melody to the songs and I miss the ballards. Gee I can even remember when we danced together without jumping and playing rag doll.

I love the late 60s to 70s, but then I liked Grunge, then Jack White and so on, so I like what is new that follows the heritage of rock, blues, and jazz and does it well. Music is a reflection of the present moment as it should be. That is my favorite.

Probably, the 1980's but I also like some music from later decades.

I agree on all counts.

Yes, in a way. I like the '80s and older music. It's not just music from my childhood, but also older music that was around then.

I am old and was raised in the declining big band era of the '40s and '50s.

1965/1975 best of the best. It's kinda funny that the explosion in the arts comes in times of great strife.

“You know what the fellow said – in Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace – and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.”

? Graham Greene, The Third Man

each decade has genres that emerged that have left behind a wealth of amazing music. I can't pick a favorite decade but I can pick favorite things about each decade, decades that were before my time, during my childhood, and various stages of adulthood. My album collection has music from the 1940s through 2017.

70's and 80's

60's and 70's rock is my favorite. However, 90's alt rock was solid too. 80's? Nah It's pretty hard to beat blues, like Jimmy, Stevie Ray Vaughan.

I’m an 80s hairband fanatic. 80s ballads. I was born in 84.

On and off for the last decade, I've been working on a project compiling my fave/best/top music by decade from the present, back to the middle ages. IMO 85-89 is one of the thinnest periods in recent history. It seems a commercialism took over where artists were afraid to or discouraged from doing anything that was not poppy & safe, and a lot of the music had this thin, cheap synthesizer sound. The 70's & 90's are loaded with great stuff. Much of the classical music I like is from either the Baroque period (1650-1750) or the Late-Romantic/Post-Romantic/Impressionist period (1875-1925). The 40's thru the 60's I find is a very fertile period for Jazz. After losing interest in current music from about 2000-2005, which is when a lot of my interest in Classical and Jazz blossomed, I returned popular music to be dismayed by the scarcity of Hard Rock. After tapping into the little that there was, then came the period where I went back and discovered a lot of the international (especially Bossa Nova, Electro-Bossa) and underground/extreme metal that I had missed out on from the past to the present.

'80s

I love the music of the 60s and 70s. James Taylor, Linda Ronstadt, The Eagles, John Prine, John Sebastian.

I have good memories of both 70's and 80's music

I don't really have a favorite one. I think they are all unique in their own way. I definitely love music.

Watch "Isn't It Time - The Babys" on YouTube

Watch "The Babys - Everytime I Think Of You (Live Midnight Special 1979) 4vov.avi" on YouTube

I'm a song in on every decade. Here's my latest.

I've always considered the '60s to be my favorite decade of music; however, If I were to choose my favorite 10 consecutive years of music, it would probably be from between '67 to '77.

60s and 70s

80's more rock bands in the charts . Some good stuff out these days though

80’s

I dunno. I might be listening to music from any decade between the 20s and the 90s.

Nirvana. Green Day. Alice In Chains. Smashing Pumpkins. Radio Head.
