new order, blue monday violent femmes blister in the song

I'm listening to one right now: Genesis, "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway." Always reminds me of that girl I foolishly broke up with at Bowling Green State University (Ohio) in 1982...

Others, in no particular order:

King Crimson, "Red"
Ultravox, "Rage in Eden"
Yes, "Tales from Topographical Oceans"
Iron Maiden, "Number of the Beast"

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.

In college from '77 - '81 so there were several albums & songs:

- Lots of friends were disco heads, but not me, so nothing in that camp
- One Burbon, one scotch, one beer
- UK - In the Dead of Night
- Jean Luc Ponty - anything from Enigmatic Ocean & Imaginary Voyage
- John McLaughlin & Mahavishnu Orchestra
- Return to Forever - Romantic Warrior

way too many more
