re: Music in 70's and 80's

What I enjoyed about the music of the 70's in particular was you could hear Led Zepplin, Jim Croce, the O'Jays and Charlie Rich all on the same radio station.

The exposure to so many genres gave a base of appreciation for most music before and after.

I thought of this the other day. Rock n Roll AND
Rhythm n Soul on the same channel. Bands like Earth Wind and Fire, Average White Band, Ohio Players, etc. had some listenable stuff then. Black music today is rap and that ain't music.

Wow. I was having the same thoughts. The sixties were even more eclectic. You could listen to all sorts of genres in a matter of minutes. You could hear The Rolling Stones followed by Frank Sintra followed by a popular country tune. Truly a great time to listen to the radio and the reason why I love all sorts of different music.
