I forgot about buying those little 45 records with one good song on one side and a shite song on the other side.

I had pretty young parents who listened to great music, so I was listening to all of the popular music from birth. Every other preschooler had 45s of "Mary Had A Little Lamb" & other kiddie songs. My first 45 was "American Band" by Grand Funk Railroad, so I got introduced to rock & pop music very early on. ... But as for the 80s, the countdown was the best thing on radio because there were so many different great sounds - some true rock, some true pop, some a mix of both, some a bit punk, some a bit more metal, etc. Hell, you heard everything from Flock of Seagulls to The Clash, to Springsteen, to MJ, to Pink Floyd, to U2 to all the hair bands, etc., etc., etc., ... It was truly an awesome era in music.
