I literally just made an account for the sole purpose of posting that link. Congratulations, sir, for beating me to the punch.

Welcome here nonetheless.

A Night At The Opera! Has NEVER been topped!

I might say 1975 as well. A Night at the Opera, Blood On the Tracks, Physical Graffiti, Tommy (the movie), Fleetwood Mac, Win, Lose, or Draw, Wish You Were Here. Born to Run, for God's sake. Either 1975 or maybe '78; Blue Valentine, Darkness on the Edge of Town, Excitable Boy, Dire Straits, Outlandos D'Amour, etc.
And yes, I realize that we only hear the best stuff from the past, but I still like it better than what I consider the best of the present.

I'm with you on that, but I concede that I do like this one instance of its use:

I don't think I could pick a single "best year for music" -- there's good stuff and a whole mess of crap every single year, some years are better than others . . . eh. Doesn't mean I'm not a GOW, though. Plenty of other reasons for people to get off my lawn.

What's the problem with auto-tune? Just don't friggin' use it! I pretty much gave up on car radio a few years ago.
I vote for my music with my wallet! I BUY a licensed copy of the music and put it on my mp3 player.
Commercial radio has outlived it's usefulness! Don't get me started on the inaccurate and untimely 'traffic reports' or what they claim to be 'news'!
Carl-E:
...which is why I only listen to non-commercial public radio. Best news and music by a long shot.
And for indy music past & present, I recommend WYEP online. I got it at home and in the orifice office.
