In High School And College What Music Did You Play Most?

In high school, I loved the Beatles when I was maybe around the ninth grade.  I played a lot of Hamilton, Joe, Frank, and Reynolds.  I loved Colour My World by Chicago.  That was the day of the Monkees, and Herman's Hermits  (Mrs. Brown You've Got A Lovely Daughter"!). Let's not forget the Sonny and Cher Show.!  Loved all of that too!

 

In college I discovered the incredible guitars in Pink Floyd.  I also liked Moody Blues and Joan Bayez.

In high school, the Stones, Bob Dylan, and Simon and Garfunkle. In college , Janis Joplin, Led Zeppelin, and CCR, oh and so many more. I may be old, but we had some great music.

Also Queen, Peter Frampton, Kansas, Culture Club, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, and still my favorites: Sparks.

 

@jaxs mom - Did you ever see Siouxsie and the Banshees in concert? They are still on my list of bands I wish would play a concert near me.

Culture Club was here a couple months ago and were fabulous.
