Some of the music I liked in my teens still sounds great. But definitely not all of it. Most of the music I love now would have been completely unavailable to me in the 70s and 80s. It took streaming music and algorithms to introduce me to the music of West Africa. So many amazing musicians in that part of the world, and I never even knew it existed.
