The 80's were characterized by industry over-involvement at practically every level of creativity. In essence, the 80's were stuffed with pre-packaged bands and utterly commercial crap cocked together by record company executives to line their pockets. Formulaic was the credo - party rocker for the guys, soft ballad for the ladies, throw in some anthemic refrains and a few watery synth lines, and viola. Certainly there were some bands that escaped this stigma, but calling the 80's the best decade of music is like calling Walmart the best retailer in existence. It took Nirvana and their grunge ilk to tear down the horrible, bombastic cheese of the most overtly colorless and misogynist decade in the history of modern music.
If I was to answer truthfully, I'd have to say 65-75. So much ridicuously good music, so much of it socially conscious and groundbreaking. A time of great studio experimentation, too.

Like:
- Lennon's last album (great from beginning to end)
- Lloyd Webber's 'Phantom of the Opera' and 'Aspects of Love'
- Penderecki's Polish Requiem
- Orkney Wedding, With Sunrise, by Peter Davies
- Yngwie Malmsteen's early albums
- Satriani's first three records
- Tavener's 'Protecting Veil'
- Vai's debut album
- Robert Simpson's 8th, 9th and 10th symphonies + several string quintets.
- Tehillim & The Desert Music
- Edge of Darkness soundtrack (with Eric Clapton + Michael Kamen)
- P. D. Q. Bach's 80's works
- Philip Glass's output during the decade (especially CIVIL warS)
- Les Misérables (the musical)
- Paul Sutin's second album, featuring Steve Howe and his son
And counting...
All in all, the 80's were much more than Bon Jovi and Cyndi Lauper.

And even if the 80's was just that, it would be much better than the 90's and 00's combined.

There was a lot of shocking shit in the 80's, but at least it had character. Music since then has just been a colourless blend of things that have been done before, and done better.
I don't need a list of exceptions to that, I know they're out there... in general though, music is in pretty bad shape.

The bland crap originated in the '80s. There has been interesting music in every decade, but the chart-oriented music in the '80s was the worst since the '50s at least, if you ask me. Mass-produced crap created by the producers with the 'band' just acting as poster-boys, which characterized the '90s, was elevated to an (anti-)art form during the '80s.
