Why is the music of 60-ies better?

[shai]

We grow up on the 60-ies (Arxiv populyarnoy muzyki) and then we start to listen to modern music. Why is the music of the 60-ies better, than that of 70-ies, 80-ies and the rather 90-ies.

[Pinhead]

Wrong question, you should first ask why is the 60s music better then any other and just then ask why. You see, that's not a fact.

No my friend, the question is not wrong as far as I am concerned. If it's wrong for you, then you can reply according to your taste and view. If you doubt that 60-ies are any better than any kind of music that came afterwards, then you have to do two things:
1. Step aside and explain the world of your newest hypotheses (who knows, you can win in the end)
2. Stand apart and watch how the discussion will grow to be and come in where it suits you right!

I should have wrote, is the music of 60s not "why is...", my bad

anyway, you stated that 60s music is better, now why should i try to prove that it's not? You made the statement so it's gonna be you who has to prove his words, not me. Besides i didn't say you're wrong, i said the question is wrong.
I could have asked, why is rabiz the most intelligent music, now would you bother answering that question? I think no

[Pinhead]

Ah, ok, blije k delu. I don't think 60s music is the best, cuz in 70s there were better albums (even by the bands of 60s)(not counting disco **** ). Can't say much of 80s, though there were some great albums too in that decade. What about the 90s... Well 90% of music in 90s was junk, but the rest 10% could swallow up all the 4 decades, and don't even fart. Because there were masterpieces created in 90s that i don't think can ever be surpassed.

1.How do you think the albums in 70-ies were better than those in 60-ies and which are those? From the 60-ies kingdom Rolling and Presley remained in 70-ies.
2.What are the masterpieces unsurpassed - can you speak concretely?

There were great groups/albums in 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s

The fact that you love the music of 60s doesn't mean that it's "da best".

The fact is not that I love it, but most music critics and most intelligent people love it and respect it. History of modern music and time have proved the 60-ies the best. Not me, of course. Bring your examples of those eras that have such grandiose effect on poeple as the 60-ies perfect music. Bring them and explain why they are better. I don't judge subjectively, the rather I love 60-ies. If there's argument, one has to be objective, man! And I assure you I am.

p.s. Well concerning pre-War music, you hardly can say a good word about it in comparison to 60-ies. Pre-War music was one-sided, undynamic and poor. It was mostly improvization and nothing else.

IMHO

Miles Davis, Charlie Parker, John Lee Hooker, Ray Charles, Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerrald, Duke Ellington, Buddy Holly, Elvis Presley....

1. More better bands in 70s, like Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Black Sabbath.....

Well, Led Zeppelin, Floyd, Black Sabbath (well, this one is really funny to be better) can never be better than Beatles or Stones or Credence or Doors. Each of them play a certain stream of music - that is narrow, genred, and besides, Zep has songs that hardly have melody - namely not real songs. Floyd is good, but again has not the ultimate melodcal expression and not that musical dynamism and richness and wonder and spontainety that Beatles or Stones have.
AS far as your arrogant words go here in the second point, I would recommend you be polite and never ignore the one whom you don't know. I have studied rock music very well, and I do know too much about it - not only exclusively as music, but as a social phenomenon. So, even if I don't know the names of the albums, you should have posted them. But... if I happen not to know them, then they are NEVER unsurpassed, as YOU only think)

To Groul
To chto sledstvie drugogo ne znachit chto ono xuzhe. kakaya ne logichnaya mysl. Beatles na osnove blues i nachinayushego rock'nrola doshli do nedosegaemogo - tak i Rolling Stones. Oni vzyali opyt predydusehgo i dorobotali ego do samogo konca, tak chtobi bolshe nikto ne smozhet oboyti ix. Ix muzika byla sovsem novoy togda, sovsem. Eta muzika universlna, yeyo mozhno igrat na lyubom instrumente, i ona ochen bogata melodiey. A jazz, blues, i vse oni monotonnye, odnotonnye, net suchestvenno novyx variantov melodii, vsyo stroitsa na improvizacii predydushego.
A classiki rechi ne mozhet byt. Ona nikogda ne v sravnenii s lyogkoy muzykoy, xotya takoe voobshe delayut, i k tvoemu glubokomu gnevu, skazhu chto Lennon i McCArtney hayeren asac pattin BAxin el, Vivaldiin el hasarakakan karciqov "Kto samiy luchshi muzikant 1000 letiya. yesho god tomy nazad"

[groul]

namely not real songs.
this shows that everything you don't like you call not real.

Floyd not that musical dynamism and richness and wonder and spontainety that Beatles or Stones have.
Oh, really?

AS far as your arrogant words
never talk like that in the forum. who are you to call someone arrogant? The only person being arrogant is you at this moment. Have you ever heard about something called "opinion"?
What about some good manners?

I would recommend you be polite and never ignore the one whom you don't know.
The only impolite persone around is... guess who?

I have studied rock music
LOL, You'd better listen to it, not study.

I do know too much about it...
Mama jan!

So, even if I don't know the names of the albums
so do you know "too much" or not?

well, this one is really funny to be better

Maybe, funny for you, the one that doesn't suspect that Sabbath created a whole new world of music with thousands of bands elvolved, new genre, new ideas and new tendencies.

can never be better than Beatles or Stones or Credence or Doors

Which in their turn can never be better then Gusan Totik. Ari u hamozi, erb senc hamozvac hamozvac xosum en... mardu haves el a paxnum.

Each of them play a certain stream of music - that is narrow, genred, and besides, Zep has songs that hardly have melody - namely not real songs.

I'ts much better to become a master in a genre then a student in many, which Beatles and Rolling actually are. Just a bunch of teenagers that created music for the masses. That's why masses love them (including you). That's their main problem (like today's pop divas'). They make music for the audience not for themselves.
What about the melody... if you're a hardcore fun of melodies why don't you listen to r&b crap like Boys 2 Man or Mariah Carey? Or you do?
And after all your statement about Zep not being melodic is absolutely wrong. Some of their songs show the highest level of melodiousness, melodiousness that plays on your soul not in the ears. Guess the one that finds cheesy and childish melodies like in "Yesterday" a state of art creations will never understand it.

Floyd is good, but again has not the ultimate melodcal expression and not that musical dynamism and richness and wonder and spontainety that Beatles or Stones have.

OMG, I don't even want to compare (early) Pink Floyd with those commercial musicmakers. BTW listen to gospels for melodical expression, Slayer for dynamism, Bach for richness, cartoon soundtracks for wonder and Sektor Gaza for spontainety. That would be a nice collection.

AS far as your arrogant words go here in the second point, I would recommend you be polite and never ignore the one whom you don't know

Recommendations declined.

I have studied rock music very well

What made you think that i was speaking of rock music? krkin porcir. And Groul is right, you should rather listen to it.

and I do know too much about it - not only exclusively as music, but as a social phenomenon

good for you but we're talking about music as a form of expression, not as a social phenomenon.

So, even if I don't know the names of the albums, you should have posted them

Ok, here you go, Emperor, Arcturus, Katatonia, Dismal Euphony... I hope that i enriched your studies of music. Now you know the names, so you can argue with me with 100% proof of knowing your righteousnes. Don't you?

But... if I happen not to know them, then they are NEVER unsurpassed, as YOU only think)

Sure, insufficient knowledge proves your righteousnes once again.

From "to Groul" (menak mi ban, el grelu haves chka)

Eta muzika universlna, yeyo mozhno igrat na lyubom instrumente

Zilinu toje mojno igrat' na lyubom instrumente

P.S. I was a big fan of Beatles myself, even considered myself a "bitloman", and thought that it's the best band out there. No ya v@shel iz etogo vozrasta.

Groul, "arrogant words" were not inteded for you. Hm, man, you got furious because you didn't have no sound arguments to bring about and decided to back your opinion-sharer. Well, you posted a reply to me where you did say no argumentative phrase against my arguments, namely you either don't know how to argue, or you are already beaten up and down, so there's really nothing to put forth.

Oh my. Do you really think this ... music is just better and unsurpassed? You think that one album can overcome a whole history - a wrong judgement. If only one album can make that artist famous, then he's not good artist. Beatles' all songs are good. There's no defect in them. Absolutely. ALl your artists create only one good and worthy song or album "Stairway in Heaven", "Child In Time", "Wall", etc and then sink down forever. They can not be better. Beatles were real composers, they could compose whenever they wanted and the song would come off a masterpiece, others can not do it.
Your groups, something of them I know and listened, are so narrow music, like in detective genre Agatha Christie, that the range of their musical expression is but limited. 60-ies didn't know any range, any limit, any new song was a whole new wolrd, a whole new musical conception.

hey, eto ne vozrast. Tebe prosto nadoelo Beatles i ty reshil chto drugaya musica luchshe. daje segodnya bolshe lyudey slushayut Beatles - fact obyasnyaetsa tem, chto eto yestestvennaya musica, musica blishe k prirode i k cheloveku. Tvoi exoticheskie melodii obosnovany na electro instrumentax. Bez bolshoy ustanovki ix nevozmozhno igrat. Eto - ne nastoyahsya muzika. Takuyu muzyku sdelash i ty, ne somnevaysa, yesli u tya budet synthezator. Vot idi i sprosi u compositorov-pedagogov iz konservatorii, luchshe li Beatles ostalnyx? Otvet budet takoy chto tebe pridyotsa sprosit WHY??? ne somnevaysya. ya proshol cherez eto. ya govoril daje s metal rockerami, nikto tak rebyacheski kak ty ne vyskazyvalsya po otnosheniyu k Beatles. Bolshinstvo iz nix uvereny chto 60-ie luchshe, no oni lyubyat svoy metall ili hard rock, gde nichgo krasivogo, nchego artistichnogo. Odnako oni lyubyat, i vsyo. CHitay pro Beatles. Negde budet napisano o tvoix lyubimyx avtorov, i nikogda ne budet napisano.
Pinhead, nado umet proigryvat. Potomu kak ty ne lyubish Beatles a lyubish Floyd, ne znachit, chto Floyd luchshe. tebe ne povezlo, tebe nravitsa muzika drugogo stliya, nashix dney, musyka uzkix tonalnostey i improvizacii. A ty xochsesh chtob ona byla luchsey.
Ya uzhe 10 let ne slushayu Beatles. Ya izuchal (unlike you who only listens) pochti vsyu istoriyu muzyki. Segodnya ya lyublyu daje Modern Talking, no ne znachit chto MT mozhet byt kogda libo, kakim to obrazom luchshe Beatles. Mne povezlo, ya lyublyu to chto luchshe vsex. Eto ne moyo mneniye, Pinhead, a mneniye professionalov i lyubiteley. nado vsegda sporit objektivno.
