When it comes to politics, I prefer the Missionaries.
We Boomers have more in common with the Transcendentals, and that make us a bit scary. I agree, the Missionaries were a better version of Prophet.
I liked the Transcendentalists for their romanticism and idealism. They were like boomers in youth in that they could look outside the box of conventional views. They became very militant on both sides in the civil war though, similar to us today. Missionaries were more business oriented, and many were evangelists and prohibitionists, but there were some good visionaries and mystics in the group with a social gospel. It's a mixed bag.
But as for boomer era music (which was also Silent), the mid-60s through early 70s is the classic era whose music will last.
