savvy is a good word to describe Jerome IMO

Exactly Complex ! You have to look for it! It won't be on the commercial top 40 charts for the most part!(although there are some good bands/artists that have huge sales).

I will say that with the present decade, it's much more common to find commercial and questionable music than it was before, but brilliant music is still around. It's simply become more underground and indie. Anyone who say's the present day doesn't have any good music, clearly is too lazy to look for it, or is looking in the wrong places.

Well, it's a toss-up between the 60s and 70s. The 60s had the 'British Invasion', the Beatles, Stones, the Who, Zeppelin, CCR, Hendrix, the Doors, while the 70s had the best of Pink Floyd, Queen, Aerosmith, Deep Purple, Elton John, Clapton, etc. I think
Rock sort of died in mid-90s, after the demise of Guns N' Roses.

I agree totaly with that. The Rock was from mid 50's to mid 90's. 40 years.

Hard to say but the worst was 80's

My fav decade is undoubtedly the 70's. I think musical creativity reached its highest peak at that time, the best albums came out or at least my fav ones. To mention some classics, Maggot Brain, Bitches Brew, What's Going On, Dark Side of the Moon or Who's Next are immortal, and albums such as Aqualung, Tago Mago, Pronounced Leh-nerd Skin-nerd or Funhouse are masterpieces for me. And I could go on.
However, I must say there wouldn't be 70's without 60's. I could say 60's was the basis but I think this decade is as huge as 70's. Maybe even a bit better. But 70's just touch my heart.
80's sound too commercial for me but I must say there're some great stuff there. 90's are a little more interesting and currently I'm trying to get more into it.

Each decade had their share of fantastic music but I believe the '60's was the best for me... The Velvet Underground, Bob Dylan (he evolved like none other imo), the Beatles, and Led Zeppelin.... Aretha... so many... all paved the way for so many great artists.
