Um, I was into Dan Fogelberg's stuff once upon a time (being heavily
infatuated with my first girlfriend had clearly robbed me of my sanity).
I like Renaissance. I used to like Styx and Triumph (a long time ago).
Somehow, the Triumph tune "Little Boy Blues" doesn't impress me any
more, and Styx got a bit repulsive with Mr. Roboto, etc. Serious guilty
pleasure . . . Yngwie Malmsteen's first album. A band called Star People
. . . good stuff Maynard. My wife likes Camper van Beethoven, so I'll
probably get hooked on that shit too at some point. "Take the skinheads
bowling, take them bowling . . . " :-)
