Ah yes, Styx. The only group in my collection that rivals Bon Jovi in regards to number of CDs/tapes owned. *g*.
Part of my problem is that my mom kept me up on Motown and jazz artists, and choir supplied me with country and Broadway (ah, the joys of a New Jersey education system *g*), but I was denied a rock-and-roll diet until I got shipped out with my Dad to Tucson in '82. Even then, I was mostly exposed to pop-rock until my sophomore year in highschool in '84, so I was just in time for the hairbands, rap, and metal, but had missed most of the 'classic' groups and had to discover them later.
