When you realize that music was created by people from the silent generation.

Silent generation was before 1945, boomer from 45 till 64, the pill came out 62 no more baby boom, so tell me about the hits before 45.....oh fuck you got me.....

Lets look at the members of The Beatles (:

  • John Lennon was born in 1940
  • Paul McCartney was born in 1942
  • George Harrison was born in 1943
  • Ringo Starr was born in 1940

Just because the music was made during the age of the boomers doesn't mean the people that made it were boomers.

I saw my mistake, never hit a human that agreed he was wrong

He was right so I changed the title...

Sure, but others like Santana, Michael Jackson, Sting, Bruce Springsteen, Madonna,Ted Nugent, Ozzy Osborne,Jimmy Buffet, Karen Carpenter, and Neil Young were Baby Boomers. Lots of great music from Baby Boomers
