I think we all love the music we listened to as kids the most.
I'm definitely nostalgic about the music of my youth; The Clash and Fishbone and that whole music scene. I still have all that music to this day. There was some great music going on in the late 70s and 80s.
I listen to oldies but goodies stations, '60s and '70s music.
The people who were in college in the '50s were my first real audience, and their kids, the people who found my records in the cabinet during their 'Mad 'magazine years picked me up also.
In the Seventies, album artwork became really beautiful items. The whole process of doing an album sleeve, it became a very artistic thing.
I love Eighties rock.
Look, when I started out, mainstream culture was Sinatra, Perry Como, Andy Williams, Sound of Music. There was no fitting into it then and of course, there's no fitting into it now.
I didn't really like the '80s, to be honest with you. There was some good music that came out, but it went a bit disco for me.
I'm not one of those freaks who can't see anything past 1977.
Before hip-hop existed, we were listening to soul songs from the '70s. I grew up with Motown, Elton John, and the Beatles. To me, that's good music.
I used to love to look at cover art for vinyls.
I love listening to old records. Stuff from the '70s, even disco and funk records and a lot of early rock albums - what's great about those recordings is that you can actually hear the true tones of the drums themselves.
The Meatbats are a throwback band.
I love music and songwriters from the '60s and '70s.
Growing up I really loved Mazzy Star, The Cranberries, Fiona Apple, Everything But The Girl. I listened to a lot of really random things too that I would find by myself. I would find Minnie Riperton albums that I would fall in love with, also, a lot of old country records.
The 1980s were all about synths for me, and it never went away after that.
I am really into '70s music, like The Rolling Stones, The Doors and what not.
Way back before 1980, prior to 'Disco Dancer' breaking into the collective consciousness of filmgoers, I had come to Chennai to compose for a film called 'Suraksha.'
I'm a child of the 70's; influenced mostly by albums that had a wide variety of style.
I miss the 80's as well, it was a truly great decade for music.
I don't use old music.
I was going to Studio 54 when I was 12 years old. It's true. It's crazy.
I honed in on a great time, the Motown era, the '60s and '70s. That type of music has always been a staple in my life.
My pop culture ended somewhere north of Elvis but not too far.
The Beatles, the Small Faces and the Kinks were great bands, but that was in the '60s.
