Nobody claimed it was better. You said it was overblown, to which I countered that some of the best music ever recorded is from that era, therefore not overblown. Some of the best music ever recorded is newer too. But for rock and roll, that was the era in which a lot of magic happened, a lot of progress was made, and it changed the face of music for everything that came after. So it's not overblown. That doesn't mean it's better than whatever music you think I'm comparing it to. It means that it stands on its own as worthy of the praise it receives.
Yeah, I guess that's fair enough. I've just run into way too many people who seem to think it's the only music worth listening to or something. I can agree with what you said pretty much.
