"Caught you with your back field in motion. Gonna have to penalize you!" - The Intruders Took the stub coding off this and delisted it from the stubs list as I think everything is said about the topic that needs to be said. Word count is 200. Not every subject is deep as the ocean. If someone wants to amplify, I would suggest more example artists or songs, although the list given seems pretty representative. Perhaps something on the anthropology/psychology of aging and the experience of finding your generation's defining music has entered the Oldies category would be worth adding. I would put something in about the experience of hearing Bob Dylan on the Muzak system at my local mega-grocery, but that would be original content. I think the key word to link would be 'dysphoria' Here.it.comes.again 05:18, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Moved long artist list to own page

As the list was getting very long I moved it to it's own page. It would be be appropriate to provide some examples in this article but due to size of article concerns we should keep the long list on it's own page. --Cab88 18:27, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Added sources

It didn't take me long to find a web site which read like parts of this article.Vchimpanzee 20:43, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
