One thing for me is that I come to some of the 60s/ older stuff with no popular preconceived notions of "coolness" versus "uncoolness". Take for example this album:

Lawrence Welk - Scarlett O'Hara

Now some may say -- ooooo -- Lawrence Welk -- ooooo! This would no doubt have been said by teens back in 1963. But it quite honestly doesn't suck for the most part. For one thing -- most of the tracks are great tunes for when I do my bike rides

His version of Scarlett O'Hara is as good the version by the Eagles on Pye


as is his version the Chantay's Pipeline


Whereas my abhorrence of much of today's stuff is almost because I'm being told by the media moguls that Drake or Ed Sheeran is really hot, when a critical ear shows them as being just hype.
