Which of the following decades produced the best music?

The love for the '70s is interesting, particularly as someone who lived the decade in HS and college and was a DJ at my college radio station. If you would have polled this question in the 1990's people would have dissed the '70s solely because it gave rise to disco which dominated the second half of the decade. Disco was such a downer for traditional rockers that radio stations held record smashing events with the records to be smashed from their disco collection. The 80's were loved in part because the New Wave washed away the disco era and returned rock back to some of it's 60's roots. Yet, as many of you note, as dire as disco seemed to the rockers then there was some tremendous rock that came out as well.

I know most here are focused on rock, but in jazz the 1950's stand out.

It's interesting to think of jazz as an "art" music since was arguably the style of much of "pop" music from the 1920's through the 40's. Does that suggest later in this century rock may become an "art" music when some other style becomes the mainstay of "pop"?
