I'm with you Roger (what's up mate, can't you lie in on Sundays either?!!!). I'd allow up to '60 as being the Golden Era of R&R - the real groundbreaking stuff. If it hadn't happened there'd never have been any Beatles, Stones, Led Zep, Genesis, Eminem, Boyzone (there's a thought!) or any of 'em.

I listen to, and enjoy, music from all genres and all periods (yes, including Eminem whom I regard as a superlative wordsmith) but I always come back to the joy and simplicity of the old R&R artists. Rock On!
