I'd like to be 18 in 1967, when everything for music came together.

But I disagree with your point on retro rock making a comeback. It's a style that should stick around and be expanded upon, but I don't want it to see a comeback, original sounding music should be continued to be churned out. Especially bands like a great example, The Darkness. It just sounds so unoriginal, like they're trying so hard to be Led Zeppelin, but not be. In the end, it sounds stale. A band I really like that has this sort of flattery by intimidation: Mars Volta. Yea, I should say they're original in some forms, but they serve as a gateway to the psychedelic music of the 70s.

Lenny Kravitz......don't get me started with this pseudo-jimmy manchild sellout. This man is exactly what's wrong with music today. Musically he's wrote a few catchy songs you can hum to, but with the talent this guy has, he wastes a lot of it on his image. His music is just so......unoriginal.

I think great music has been produced in all eras, but never has there been a greater concentration than the 60s & 70s, music that has been produced that influenced seperate genres of music. In time they'll be another record like The Velvet Underground & Nico that as Brian Eno once said "while only a few thousand people bought a Velvet Underground record upon their initial release, almost every single one of them was inspired to start a band."
