I'm reminded of different pieces I've come across regarding the age at which we tend to form our strongest attachments to popular music. This is one that I found after a quick search: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/02/10/o...ite-songs.html

"The most important period for men in forming their adult tastes were the ages 13 to 16."

For me, that's entirely accurate. Take three years off the beginning of that range and add ten to the end of it, and that period (1958-1974) contains 90%+ of what I listen to.

By the mid-80s (when I was past 35 years of age), I was pretty well tapped-out on popular music. Between radio and CDs, there was just too much of what I liked better for contemporary pop music to hold my attention. I know I had to have missed out on some great works.
