It's understandable if a person has remained loyal to an era that corresponds with when they first discovered the joys of music. Finding a whole new world is a pretty powerful experience, and it's bound to always have an emotional resonance. What sometimes alarms me is when people get stuck in an era that doesn't correspond with their musical epiphany but actually predates it. Music should be about progression, not regression. I'm not criticising people for being, say, an 18 year old who likes late 60s psychedelia if that is just a part of their musical canvas, but if that is their entire canvas, well, I just feel a bit sad for them for their lack of exploration of other areas.
