What is Your Favorite Ten Years of Music?

If you could ONLY listen to music from ten continuous years, which ten continuous years would they be and why? Also, who would you miss most that was not recording during those years? It does not have to be a strict decade like 1990-1999 and mine is not. It does have to be ten continuous years. I've thought about it a lot and my answer will be posted in a while. If you think you know me well, guess mine. That could be fun.

Hey, also this: I'm looking for a book of illustrated, accurate, intelligent bible stories for preschoolers. I'm scanning amazon and my library but if anyone has a really great one they know and love let me know.

  1. Remarkable. Yes, that is exactly it. Why? Here are all the people who did their best work then:

    Beatles and solo Beatles
    Bob Dylan
    Joni Mitchell
    David Bowie
    Bruce Springsteen
    Marvin Gaye
    Big Star
    The Byrds
    Neil Diamond
    The Moody Blues

    And this is only a very partial list, obviously. So what artists would I miss most?

    They Might Be Giants
    Ben Folds Five
    myself and my friends
    later Bob Dylan
