I felt that the rawness that punk brought back to the music scene was one of the redeeming features of the 70s. I even enjoy what big business is doing with modern punk (Blink 182, Sum 41 and the rest) even though the whole attitude is changing.
For Pink Floyd, I love the old old Syd Barrett songs when the group was more fun and experimental. When I was a moody teenager, I couldn't get enough of Roger Waters depressing lyrics. I have some good memories to Pink Floyd.
Then there's the Beatles. Like them or not, they totally changed the face of music.
And Elvis is arguably the first music superstar.
And the Violent Femmes were one of the first post-punk bands to harness the angst of Gen-X.
Then Nirvana showed us the ennui of the 90s.
I LOVE it all!
