In that case, AC/DC's "Highway to Hell." And I'd also put up Talking Heads "Fear of Music." I played that for people and they looked at me. Kinda funny.Thom Gabrukiewiczhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13286670695334830471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5844952291333878074.post-3736243122890747892008-06-09T20:24:00.000-07:002008-06-09T20:24:00.000-07:00But Holly, I did!

Oo, and XTC's Drums & Wires, and of course London Calling... And I've a soft spot for Dylan's underrated "Slow Train Coming" album myself. <BR/><BR/>Let's not forget Rod Stewart's "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" of course.
