On the other hand, not much of it is as great as the music from my personal glorious days of yore. There surely aren't more than 10 artists in my top 100 whose first album came out in the 90s or later. At least 75% released their first album no later than the 70s. And offhand I can only think of one artist who'd be in my top 100 whose first album was released in the 2000s.

But still, there is a ton of great music released every year.
That is an hyperbole, do I detect a hint of sarcasm? I am doubtful I will find a dozen albums a year I will like ... not like, but really like.
