I'd have to chime in with quite a few of you b. picking 1965-75 as my favorite decade for rock. My next preference would b. the 1990s......i loved...loved...loved what the Grunge movement did for those god-awful spandex/hair b.nds of the 80s!
For Jazz however, it's the 1950s all the way....Charlie Parker, Monk, Miles, Coltrane, Sonny Rollins, Clifford B.own......all in glorious MONO....the only way that I listen to Jazz.
For classical, it would have to b. the years in which the likes of Klemperer, Walter, Furtwangler, Fricsay, Schuricht, Scherchen, B.rnstein with the NYPO were recording. The only exceptions would b. pianists.....Sviatoslav Richter, Glenn Gould, and Martha Argerich are among my very favorites....all of whom recorded into the 1970s and b.yond.
Ciao, Tom B.
