Really good! You've caught the atmosphere very well. I'll be interested to see Part Two.

Thanks - I have to do the pop culture art for the 80s and other pieces first - the art works are then animated as sections of the videos. You can see the 3 pieces of art that I used for Part One on my website when it's finally uploaded this week in the Pop Culture Art section

The most selfish generation to date. I speak as a 40 year old son of hippies and druggies with no respect for anything but themselves. Thank you for ruining this country's economy and leaving my generation holding the debt.

BTW: The 50s belonged to a small generation called "The Silent Generation", people who were born in the late 1920s, 30s and up to the end of WWII. They were the little kid brothers and sisters of the legendary Greatest Generation that fought WWII.

The Silents invented Rock and Roll, had icons like Elvis, Marylin Monroe, James Dean. The Booms were just little kids or being born during the 50s.

Yet like Generations X & Y, they get shouted down and talked over by the obnoxious Booms.

@Lalo3001 There is a portion of Babyboomers who are also called the Beat Generation. I actually fit in that age, but I don't know what the Beat Generation is, because it is rarely talked about.

Actually I was one of the Babyboomers who thought disco and punk sucked. I had disco fever for a while, and then I had an acidrock flashback, in a dream. One night my mind played old sixties songs that were stuck in my head over the years. Songs like Eight Miles High and Monterey(Animals) were played in a dream. Suddenly I hated disco.
