 Topic: Music Era ??
Posted: 10 Sep 2021 at 7:44pm |
What's your favorite "ERA" of radio (FM) music ?? Our local FM station plays nothing but '80's music from 5 pm Friday until 11:59 Sunday night. IMO, there's NO better music  !!

For me, it’s the mid 60’s to early 90’s classic rock.
Pink Floyd, The Moody Blues, Led Zepplin, Ted Nugent, ZZ Top, Billy Idol, Alice Cooper, Ozzy Osbourne
I do listen to a lot of talk radio during the day, for me it’s a lot better than having music on in the office, and the shop.

I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science.

I pretty well listen to anything except Rap or the Bass thump thunp Beat crap. 50,s to 90’s rock and country, big bands of the 40s. Can listen awhile to concert series old music from the classical composers, not all is music to my ears.
Radio stations around here suck, as noted play the same lists over to death, satellite has its days but ends up similarly as DJs tend to repeat their own playlists as can.
I do play CDs or just switch all the shat off and listen to the world noises.

When I think 80’s I think boy George sting and Mikey Jackson. I won’t let my ears hear that crap.
Like some of the new red dirt/ outlaw stuff or old country.

My favorite radio era is late 80's to early to mid 90's Alternative before the suits figured out that they could make money from Alternative and along came a bunch of music that I would classify as "Corporate Alternative". I like all sorts of music though. My Pandora account has everything from Gregorian chant to classical to Americana to blues to jazz to country to pop to rock to metal. Old and new.

Classic rock late 60's - 80's I don't know what to make some of this newer jungle jam some of these people listen too. Seems that it's how much BS can be spewed without taking a breath. Doesn't even have to make sense it seems, not to me anyway.

The big hair bands in the 80's killed it.

I figured the comparison would lose you, but don’t care. All I can say, if you’re going to judge musicians on drugs, you won’t be listening to much of any genre of any era.

On the drugs issue, you got that right! Years ago, I worked with a fella that at one time was a motor coach driver for music promoter. He generally drove for the CW acts, not big names, but usually the ‘opening acts’. He claimed the rockers couldn’t hold a candle to the raunchy, debotchery, filthy, disgusting, female country music bands. He said the booze, drugs, orgies, was absolutely unreal.

ABSOLUTELY NOTHING  !! The Dolly, Alabama, Hank JR. era of country music was PRICELESS over the airwaves It's nothing more than hip hop noise with the artist holding their nose shut "attempting" to get a "country 'twang" IMO
