David Bowie and George Michael at last of '16. It always seems like there are more each year, but I imagine that comes from there actually being more stars that came to the front of public eye during those decades. Before that, a few huge stars dominated the charts, but so many more were not household names. TV had a lot to do with that rise.HT Optoma HD25 LV on 80" DIY Screen, Anthem MRX 300 Receiver, Pioneer Elite BDP 51FD Polk CS350LS, Polk SDA1C, Polk FX300, Polk RT55, Dual EBS Adire Shiva 320watt tuned to 17hz, ICs-DIY Twisted Prs, Speaker-Raymond Cable
