I’d agree with you there, but I thought the period of, say, 1970/75 was boring musically - I was never really into prog rock and felt too old for the glam rock thing, I probably should have been going up to Wigan every weekend, but no one I knew was into Northern Soul. Punk/New Wave was a Godsend to me, but I tended to be about five years older than the average age at the gigs I went to in the late seventies.
