Only someone that's not fitting in would say something like that.

I'm a firm believer that fitting in is the only thing that matters in life. Now will somebody please touch me? Preferably a woman.

Here's an interesting statistical analysis of the repetitiveness of top ten hits from 1960 through 2015. It's not a terribly serious piece, but it is interesting to see someone trying to discuss music quantitatively in a context other than music theory.

Fact is there have been good artist in every decade of music, now with that out of the way I'll just say that the talent pool has thinned considerably since the early eighties.

I've been listening to 90's music and never most of the time, but recently I've been getting into some 70's singer/songwriters. There sure are a lot of excellent Joni Mitchell, Rickie Lee Jones, Carly Simons and Carole King albums packed closely together. I mean, Carole King alone released like 6 great records in a mere 5 year span between 1970 and 1974. You don't see many artists doing that anymore. Anyway, I'm still mostly about modern stuff, but damn... The sure were some years back in time which were packed tightly with albums that later became rather important genre milestones.
