I'll agree it was the best era for rock music since the 80's, where rock took what some describe as a weird turn. Personally I love a lot of 80's music, but overall I'd have to say that the 60's is probably the best era for music in general. The transformation of rock throughout that decade was incredible.
A strong argument could also be made for the 70's, which is where my heart is. Some might argue that the decade where rock got it's birth, the 50's, would be the greatest of all time. I went to high school in the late 70's and early 80's but knowing what I know I'd have to agree the 60's is the one that's forever going to be the one to beat. In looking at the way rock is headed today I have serious doubts that it will ever be beaten, or even threatened to be dethroned.
