The Transformation of Music Since the '60s: What We Listened to and How We Listened to It

The next best thing to listening to music is…talking about it.

In this episode, podcast host Bob Edholm and his guests, brothers Wayne and Al Damerow, talk about the transformation of music from the 1960s to today.

They discuss not only the types of music people have listened to since the 1960s (from rock and Motown to pop and hip hop), but how they’ve listened to the music (from transistor radios and record players to CD players and smartphones). And they break down this transformation of music by generation:

· Baby Boomers (born 1946-1964), which includes Bob, Wayne, and Al

· Generation X (born 1965-1981)

· Millennials (born 1982-1996), which includes their children and nieces/nephews

· Generation Z (born 1997-2012)

· Generation Alpha (born 2013-2024), which includes their grandchildren and great-nephews/great-nieces

So whether you grew up listening to the Beatles on your phonograph, Nirvana on your Boombox, the Foo Fighters on your CD player, or Taylor Swift on your smartphone, this podcast episode will transform the way you think about music from the 1960s to today.
