Default The Decade Mixtapes

Recently, I've been uploading a lot of my vinyl and CD's to my computer, and I thought it would be fun to make a mix for each decade. However, instead of just making playlists of my favorite songs from each era, I thought it would be more challenging to try to make mixes that gave the best survey of everything that was going on musically at that point in time. Right now, i'm sticking to a pretty simple format; once I find a genre that I find interesting and influential, I include two songs (one created by a female, and the other by a male) that exemplify it in the mix. Anyway, i'm having fun diving into genres that I know very little about, and I thought it would be interesting to see what everyone else would put in their mixes!

So, first of all, what decade (or decades) would you make a mix for? What genres would you include, and what songs would you use to represent them? And how would you format your mix (one song per genre, some genres left out, etc.)?
