I don't like all music from 70s or all music from 80s.

Disco. No.
New wave. No.
Madonna. No.

Rush. Yes.
Van Halen. Yes.

I don't think that matters. I picked the 80s but only like two of the acts listed there. I picked it because of

The 2000's and 2010's are the same in my mind. Don't feel like different decades

The whole universe knows the golden age of music is 1966-82, therefore the 70's

Artistically, probably the sixties. But the '80s were a lot more fun.

The 1780’s were bangin. People still listening to that stuff.
