@RonDeSantis You named several of my favorite bands: Hendrix, Skynard, GnR. Dire Straits is right up there with them in my opinion.

If you compare the music/bands from the last 30 years (1995-2025) to the previous 30 years (1965-1995) it isn’t even close:

From 1965-1995 you have the Beatles/Stones/Zepplin/Hendrix era; Elvis was still in the building; the rise of southern rock including Skynrd; epic country

Epic year — and it signaled the evolution from metal/hair rock towards grunge/alternative rock.

I’d take Appetite for Destruction and Master of Puppets if I had to choose between albums from the mid-to-late 80s vs the early 90s…

The statement 'The sultans of swing!' is a lighthearted reference to a Dire Straits song, contributing to a casual conversation about music preferences. It does not engage in substantive public discourse or address societal issues.
