Like lumping women and gay artists in one episode, and the rest focus on straight males for the most part...and no Laura Nyro, at least not in the “women” episode.

I lived through this era, and while I appreciate 1971 was a significant year for music, especially music that reflected the times, and it may have been the last year that AM top 40 radio was good, I am still of the opinion that 1966 was the single best year for popular music in the last 100 years.

1966 a great year, no doubt. Gotta include 1969 for Woodstock alone. hlthe2b May 2021 #2
