Which songs/albums take you back to college?

The Cars first album was very big my sophomore year.

High school for me but "Grand Illusion" is actually quite a good solid rocking album end-to-end by Styx. "Miss America" is one of my favorite rockers from the 70s and has a simple but killer guitar riff that I love to this day.

The rest of their subsequent output is less consistent.

"Leftoverture" by Kansas ain't bad either.

"It looks like our Mozart is going to be the Beatles."

I'd have to agree.

And our Bachs, Handels, etc. are the various American rhythm and blues and rockabilly artists that preceded and inspired them.

Parasound,

Chics do not dig progressive rock in general. Unfortunately, I did not come to a clear realization about this until after college. Better late than never.....

I saw "The Musical Box" Genesis cover band a while back. Packed house but virtually zero ladies in attendance save those humoring their guys most likely. Same true with Yes, Porcupine Tree and other progressive rock groups I've seen over the years. Prog rock is a guy thing for sure.

One exception I can think of is "The Moody Blues". They have lots of great tunes over the years about things that chics tend to relate to better. A more mixed crowd at "Moodies" concerts, and the ladies still dig Justin Hayward in particular.
