Gawd...feeling old now. Just a little. I'm probably less than 6 years
older than you, but my 14 year old son heard me listening to Sgt.
Pepper's and chewed me out for playing "oldies." ha ;)
Then I thought, the freaking album's over 30 years old.
Then when my 15 year old son heard me listening to U2's Actung Baby he
informed me it is a "classic" of alternative rock.
ARGH.
