Same score as you Tuesday Afternoon.
I thought it was a pretty tough test. Some obscure songs in there.

(11,362 posts)It may have something to do with how old I was when I was listening to these songs, but I'm pretty sure I had every one of those memorized back then.

(5,316 posts)...starting with the first time I heard them on the car radio over WLS Radio in Chicago, to the Ed Sullivan show and everything after.
As with many, The Beatles were a tremendous influence on me, especially musically.

I laugh my ass off when people say "The White Album didn't have a bad song on it!"
NO, actually, if you take the White Album and put the best songs on one 80 minute CD, it's a better album than 95% of the bands that followed could possibly muster.
The songs that DID NOT FIT on the 80 minute CD?
Shit.
I rest my case.
