Recently, I had the wonderful surprise of spending time with some of my closest friends from high school. It was a terrific reunion and it made me wonder how the years have gone by so quickly! In reflecting on those years, it dawned on me that the music that I was listening to in high school still resonates with me, although today\u2019s teenagers would probably not even recognize the artists. So, in an effort toward cultural edification, I submit my top ten albums* from my high school years:<\/p>\n
10. Fleetwood Mac: Tusk<\/em><\/p>\n 9. Led Zeppelin: In Through the Out Door<\/em><\/p>\n 8. Dire Straits: Making Movies<\/em><\/p>\n 7. The Police: Regatta de Blanc<\/em><\/p>\n 6. The J. Geils Band: Love Stinks<\/em><\/p>\n 5. Pink Floyd: The Wall<\/em><\/p>\n 4. The Clash: Sandanista!<\/em><\/p>\n 3. Talking Heads: Remain in Light<\/em><\/p>\n 2. Bruce Springsteen: The River<\/em><\/p>\n 1. The Clash: London Calling<\/em><\/p>\n *Yes, once you bought music on vinyl plates<\/p>\n Wishing everyone a rockin’ New Year!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Recently, I had the wonderful surprise of spending time with some of my closest friends from high school.
