For those of us over 60..


What band's output would you say best describes you/your life as you see it?

For me, Allman Brothers

Based on this thread, it seems like most audiophiles (on this site) seem to like "rock-oriented" music.  But then WHY do equipment reviewers always focus on classical music in their reviews!!  There needs to be a radical change in the reference music typically used by TAS and Stereophile reviewers..... or more likely, a change of the reviewers.   This is why most high-end speakers play classical & jazz really well, but fall flat when asked to ROCK.     (sorry for the off topic post)
Just turned 60. 

From the past: Steely Dan, The Beatles, Motown sound and the like.

Present: Warren Haynes, Marco Tansini, Bruce Katz, Joe Henry...
I am 70, so I hope I am no to old for an opinion. Old enough to have actually seen Elvis in concert. When I think back I would have to say the Beach Boys influenced me in my teens to start surfing along with Dylan and folk music. As I got older the "British Invasion" took over with " I can't get no Satisfaction" among many. I even got kicked out of high school, because my hair was touching my ears. (yes, sent home till I got a haircut) Then came Woodstock and everything changed again. Nothing better than a hit of weed and listen to "Sargent Peppers" or "Dark side of the Moon." As I got older Disco took over for a while but please don't hold that against me. As I think back so much music influenced my life and I guess Garth Brooks summed it up the best in "The Dance." "It's my life, it's better left to chance. I could have missed the pain but I would have missed the dance"ROCK ON !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
