Also remember that slimserver allows the possibility of multiple values
in tags, with the separator as specified under Server settings >
Behavior. You could create genres for 1960s, 1970s, etc. and random
play within genres. For example, if the separator is a semi-colon, you
could have "Punk; 1970s".

Alternatively, tagging rules for some formats allow for multiple tags
of the same type. For FLAC & Ogg you could have "Genre=Punk" and
"Genre=1970s" for the same track.

BUT, either of these workarounds involve considerable effort in
fiddling with tags, and I really like the original suggestion of having
slim figure out how to make decade groups out of existing year tags.
