Boomers definitely had the best music. Beatles, Rolling Stones, Dylan and The Band, Simon and Garfunkel, Allman Brothers, Moody Blues, Beach Boys, CSN, Joni Mitchell, Eagles, all the "British Invasion" groups of the '60s and the California groups (that wished they were the Dead) plus the hundreds of individual musicians that shaped the coolest generation ever.
