When the baby boomers were 20. That was classic rock.

It's all about your demographics baby. Here I've put that graph over the number of births graph. Once the boomers were old enough, their numbers were overwhelming, and youth culture became important and young people's music became important. That's why classic rock is considered a genre.

Anything between Beatlemania and MTV.

I would have a hard time counting Mötley Crüex or Pearl Jam as classic rock, more like hair metal and grunge.

Yes, except I would say it's golden age ended with the sex pistols. But I totally ignore disco
