Do you find that Led Zeppelin fans don't like The Who & Vice Versa?

33. I agree Animals easily in the top three to five

Pink Floyd albums (after Dark Side and The Wall).

Agree totally with your assessment of Rush. Their early stuff compares favorably with any other band. I thought their downward trajectory started with Grace Under Pressure. I remember getting that album in college and being disappointed. Still a solid band, but I moved on to REM and discovered Dire Straits about that point.

I discovered early Yes after 90125, and I simply love their early work.

Up until I was about 14 (1977) or so and surrendered to rock music, I stood aloof from it. This was because of the personal dynamics of my family. My half brother was big into rock music. So was my dad. I was always compared unfavorable to my brother so it always created tension when he visited. Anything he liked I could not like.

I missed going to a lot of rock concerts that my dad took my brother to in the early to mid-1970s (Alice Cooper, Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd and others I can't remember). On the one hand I regret not seeing them, but on the other hand I am glad that my brother (who did not live with my father) was able to have that time with his dad. Also I am not sure my dad could not afford a third ticket (he was unable to pay the scalper for Led Zeppelin which was a disappointment to him I am sure).

I had my comics and science fiction novels. My brother had his music.
