bigbrotiki said, the 60s/70s generational divide was more radical than any other before or after. Absolutely the truth. I am in my early 50s and the difference between my generation and my parents is vast while the difference between my generation and that of my children is slight. My kids and their friends see nothing wrong with enjoying the music or fashions of older generations or in sharing their music and fashion with their elders. It can be cool to be "retro". Of course my kids and their friends had their rebellious stage but it didn't involve the wholesale trashing of everything associated with previous generations. The 60s were a unique passage in history.
