OT: Guardians of the Galaxy Soundtrack and the return of 70's era classic rock

I like to track album sales performance on iTunes charts. And I've noticed that since the movie and soundtrack of GOTG was released, two and half months ago, albums by 70's era rock acts have performed very well on iTunes charts. Now some of this may be due to streaming services skewing toward younger audiences. But classic rock, which I include anything from Fleetwood Mac to Led Zeppelin, has really begun to shine on the charts. There's even an album titled "21 Classic Rock Favorites" that performs well on the charts.
Maybe this is similar to the affect "Saturday Night Fever" had on disco nearly 40 years ago- but to a much lesser degree.

Mikeya02, Thanos has been in one or two of the movies. He was in one of those quick scenes during the closing credits of The Avengers, and I want to say he was in another one during the closing credits of Guardians (I just don't remember that well).
The biggest mix tape of the year will soon be available to buy on cassette tape.
The Guardians of the Galaxy: Awesome Mix Vol. 1 soundtrack will be issued on cassette Nov. 17, just in time for Black Friday (Nov. 28).
