Ok, time for another Embarrassing Music Post™. I want to know what was on the turntable (or CD player for you young’uns) at your teenage house parties. Being an old man, my parties straddled the late 70’s/early 80’s divide, but most of my party friends were a little more backward looking than I was. While I was the punk/new wave guy, this is what I had to endure. No wonder I drank myself into a stupor:
- Alice Cooper – Greatest Hits
- Nazareth – Greatest Hits
- Pink Floyd – Dark Side of the Moon
- Pink Floyd – Wish You Were Here
- Foreigner – Foreigner
- Queen – News of the World
The best I could do was slip The Cars on now and then, after everyone had nodded off. How about you?
