When was the golden age of fretless bass?

There's an argument to be made the 80's were the peak because of players like Jaco, Bakithi, and Pino influencing music at the time.. The 90's are a contender too. Not sure what to think really because the way I see it, fretless still hasn't really had the same influence and popularity in my lifetime. Is the peak still yet to come or will fretless remain in relative obscurity?
