Dom, I said the golden age probably never existed. Fwiw of all of the examples you listed I have only heard of Becky Lucas and Graham. I missed the rest. I have no idea what the Dog Latin thing is either.
Oh, and how have I been proved wrong?

I met a guy the other night who said he played the viola. I asked him if he'd heard of John Cale. He said no.

Working at a small bookshop for three years did much to educate me on how Americans view reading. At the Gap or something they just saunter in; at my store they would always pause nervously, look around, and head straight for the counter. You can see in their expressions that they're still haunted by Mrs. Bixby telling them in sixth grade that books and broccoli were healthy.
