Fall, 1984 - I was a newly-minted high school freshman, surrounded by the then-current Top 40 (Prince, Madonna, Michael Jackson, Springsteen, Cyndi Lauper, etc.). My ear, however was tuned to the music of nearly 20 years earlier - the music of the 1960s.

And mixed in with the music? First love. First kiss. Last suspension from high school. Yup - lots of firsts, plus music from Wham!, The Doors, Ennio Morricone, Band Aid, Love, Pink Floyd, Buffalo Springfield and Gary Puckett and the Union Gap.
