I guess I value it as much as anyone could.
Like most, when I was young, I was only interested in what was current.
As you get older I think you tend to want to know more of previous eras.
This is probably due to getting burnt out on the current scene.
I think I was in my 30's before I took a real interest.
The first being classical music, then jazz.
Other than that I probably don't go back any further than the big band era.
Outside of current and my own collection, which dates from the 60's, big band is probably what I enjoy the most
NPR has a program of that era on Saturdays that runs for a few hours which I really enjoy listening to.
