It was awesome. I graduated high school in '78 and 1979 was freaking awesome...

 

One of the sweetest years of my life, lemme see... first apartment, working rock band, nympho GF, '66 malibu SS convertible, 50$ oz Colombian gold, dollar a hit LSD, and all the Rocky mountain way!

 

1979 seems like a happy time

 

Unknown Pleasures. Actually, fuck that shit.

Wire's 154 -- my album of choice for 1979. Oh, and Fear of Music.

 

I remember the Iran Hostage Crisis, playing in the sandbox and thinking girls still had cooties and hearing John Lennon on the radio.

note: somehow I knew Smashing Pumpkins would show up in the thread when I read the title.

 

music was awesome in england,the jam,the clash,stranglers

 

I was but a gleam in my father's eye

 

The Stranglers were good.

 

You forgot...
