Ra! Ra! Ra! Ra! Sis-boom-bah!

This blog was gonna be about Moby Grape. But to avoid the risk of appearing obsessed, its gonna be about this instead.

I read somewhere that the music you listen to as a teenager will stay with you your entire life. That is to say, what was on your walkman/itunes account/friends' mix tapes at 16 is gonna still be there when you're 60. The reasons why are unimportant here, although I have some hunches...

What I wanna talk about is what music defined YOUR high school experience. To get the proverbial ball rolling, I'll be listing the albums I listened to most frequently, but feel free to list songs, artists, videos whatever just so long as it conjures up memories of being a teen.

1. Bluesbreakers-John Mayall with Eric Clapton


2. the Paul Butterfield Blues Band


3.Get Behind Me Satan-the White Stripes

4.BBC Sessions-Cream


5. Broken Boy Soldiers-the Raconteurs


6.Those Were the Days-Cream



7.Led Zeppelin


8. More Adventurous-Rilo Kiley



9.Sessions For Robert J-Eric Clapton


10.Parklife-Blur
