best time period for music 10 year Denard Span

[edjr 5,564]

Give me 1975 through 1984

 

 

Just to name a few

 

 

Billy Joel

Eagles

Tom Petty

Van Halen

 

 

[dain11279 928]

Feel like we've done this thread a thousand times. But yeah, give me the 70s and 80s. Best period, hands-down

[iam90sbaby 2,125]

60s and 90s

[NewbieJr 540]

Overall, the 80's. Great variety, Kick ass dance music, and the new wave era. But rock n roll sucked in the 80's. Definitely 70's for rock. With a comeback in the 90's.

[vuduchile 1,941]

10 year span only?

 

Gotta go with 1970 to 1980

 

The decade opens with the last Beatles album in '70, plus albums from Creedence, The Stooges, Marvin Gaye, Santana, CSN, Hendrix,

Most of Ed's aforementioned Elton and Joel Stuff happened in there, plus Disco was huge even though lots of it sucked.

 

Plus, the following artists were in their prime then:

 

Pink Floyd

Zep

Bee Gees

Allman Brothers

Skynyrd

Dylan

The Stones

Sex Pistols

Blondie

Fleetwood Mac

Clapton

Bob Seger

The Police

Aerosmith

Stevie Wonder

BB King

George Thorogood

Paul Simon

Bowie

Springsteen

George Jones

Johnny Cash

Waylon and Willie

Nugent

 

 

And as the decade closed out, we were introduced to Van Halen, ACDC (back in black), The Clash, The Cars, Talking Heads, Prince, solo Ozzy, The Cure, Dire Straits, The Ramones, U2,

[Kopy 491]

The 1 year everyone in grunge music was alive and relevant?

Nirvana

Pearl Jam

Sound garden

STP

Candlebox

Alice in Chains

All excellent first albums, and changed the direction of the industry.

[Kopy 491]

It was a big F U to hairspray companies anyways.

You missed one

[vuduchile 1,941]

You missed one

Who dat?

[vuduchile 1,941]

1970 to 1980 is 11 years.

Thanks Mr Technicality.

 

 

Ok. Then let's go with May 8, 1970(Let It Be release date) to May 7 of 1980. That lets me keep VH, ACDC, Prince, but I lose U2 and Ozzy since their first albums debuted in Sept and Oct of 1980.

 

I'll take it.

[mighty_thor 115]

I'd say 1967 through 1976. From 77 on there was a disco and soft rock period in the 70's (Jackson Browne, fleetwood mac, etc.,). The Beatles, Rolling Stones, led zep, and even aerosmith(early/mid 70's) put out their best stuff in the late '60's and early '70's.

[mobb_deep 917]

90's

 

Radiohead

Tool

RATM

Nirvana

Pearl Jam

Muse

Dr Dre

NAS

Biggie

Wu Tang

No comment

[cbfalcon 824]

While the 1965-1975 era has more all time top 10 type bands. let me make an argument for approximately 1991-2001

 

Early half of the 10 year run

• Guns N Roses - Use Your Illusion 1 and 2 both released in 91.
• Metallica - Black album released in 91.
• Nirvana
• Pearl Jam
• Alice in Chains
• Smashing Pumpkins
• Soundgarden
• Bush - not as great, but I loved those first 2-3 albums
• Stone Temple Pilots
• Rage Against the Machine
• Dr Dre
• Snopp Doggy Dogg
• Ice Cube
• Beastie Boys
• Toadies - homer choice, but 1994's Rubberneck is a classic
• Red Hot Chili Peppers
• U2
• Green Day
• REM
• Nine Inch Nails

 

Most of the above were still strong, but then bands like the following joined in during the 2nd half of that 10 year run.

• Oasis - not my faves, but huge
• Notorious BIG
• Tupac
• Radiohead
• Foo Fighters
• No Doubt
• Outkast
• Beck
• Blur
• Jay Z
• Eminem
• Tool
• Muse

And that's mostly just off the top of my head.

 

Other than all the sh!tty rap artists great list. 5 of my top 10 favorites are all there.

Hip-hop was great during the early nineties. Now, not so much.

 

Do you alreast like the Beastie Boys?

[iam90sbaby 2,125]

Do you alreast like the Beastie Boys?

 

Beastie Boys are cool. I just have a hard time listening to music that talks about activities that I never partake in. B&E's, riding on spinners, that sort of thing.

 

Here is some new hip hop/rap whatever you want to call it I like, you might dig it:

 

It is when they start glorifying really sh!tty behavior that is when it just becomes annoying for me to listen too. I know that makes me sound like a square but I just feel like the biggest poser if I listen to that crap.

 

You should check out Quinn XCII.

[cbfalcon 824]

I went back and added a couple more bands...Beastie Boys, Cube, Muse (Origin was their 2nd album, and it hit in 2001).......I'm sticking with this era. Probably left out lots more good hip hop.

You forgot The Offspring.

 

Add them or you lose all credibility.

Agree 100%. That's why I said early 90's hip-hop (Tribe Called Quest, Common, NAS, etc.) was a much different music than the crap you hear now.

 

In regards to the video you posted, that's more along the lines of the 21 Pilots tweener pop.

[Frozenbeernuts 1,652]

I am a rap fan and I do not like the Beasty Boys. I know almost everyone does. I just always thought they were annoying.

Put some serious work and thought into this.

 

 

I'm failing to see Nickleback listed

LMAO! Kidding right? This isn't a worst ever list.

[jerryskids 5,205]

 

LMAO! Kidding right? This isn't a worst ever list.

Hating Nickelback is as hipster as loving Radiohead.

 

CB makes a good argument for the 90s. Putting U2 there isn't fair though, their heyday was the 80s.

 

I'll stick with the 70s tho. Maybe 68 to 78 to pull in more Who, Hendrix, Simon and Garfunkel.

Never saw the BG's. Saw Waylon & Willy. The Outlaws. And saw every band in your last paragraph except The Cure. Oh, never saw Led Zep. All others.....

[BunnysBastatrds 1,916]

Met Blondie on New Year's Eve the day I met my wife. She wasn't wearing any panties. She bent over and I wanted to stick a finger in there. Or two.

[Big Guy 1,400]

The 70's wins hands down with Rock ( rules ) as well as overall quality in a variety of genres.
