There are those years that are important, musically, for every generation. Those who came of age in the 60s had the Beatles and the Rolling Stones.
As a teenager in the 70s, I was bombarded by a lot of crap (remember disco?)
But it all kind of came together in 1979, the year I entered high school.
Ahhhh, 1979. The Knack, Cheap Trick, Elvis Costello & The Attractions, B-52's I could go on. But instead of typing, give a listen, watch.

"Good Girls Don't," The Knack
