We're idealizing this era, but maybe it was more messed up than it was. I certainly remember a lot of anxiety approaching the Millennium. I also remember it being I call it an apotheosis of some of the best music across every genre of all time. I'm going to hold still to it, even though I am somewhat biased because I was coming of age at the time. The tunes coming out 97 and 98 are incomparable, but that's for a separate post
