Anything up to (and including) the 1970s is an acceptable answer. Anything after is unacceptable and evidence of an appalling lack of taste. Happily this applies - at least with respect to the cut off point - to almost all genres.

I also happen to think that classical today is pretty good, and has recovered from its postwar nadir artisticially, even if contemporary stuff has next-to-no marketshare.

Though even the idea of a postwar (composition) nadir is kind of questionable; of course you did have the... um... absurdities of the Darmstadt School, but you also had (for instance) pretty much the entire career of Benjamin Britten.
