Shit, my parents were boomers and raised me on 50s and 60s music. The oldest boomers would’ve been 35 in 1980.
All that said, nothing wrong with listening to music from the past. Most popular classical music was written well over a century ago. I personally love music from the 40s. My son gets an earful representing every decade
The youngest boomers were born in 1964, so they’d be in thier late 20s at the end of the 80’s. Which were my parents.
I also dont think there’s anything wrong with exposing your kids to older media, which was my point. Your kids will seek out new media without you, so giving them a foundation of things that came before helps expand thier knowledge base.

You’re confusing Gen X and the boomers. Boomers were ~1948-64, making the youngest boomers 61 today.
