My big musical skeletons in the closet are lots and lots of fusion, art rock, and (to a lesser extent) Tangerine Dream/Jean-Michel Jarre type synthesized space rock. Some of the art rock still sounds good (I'm a huge King Crimson fan to this day), but I haven't dared the fusion in a long, long time.

How'd you like Dean's prog rock Roger Dean inspired freakout in the last Venture Brothers?

The last time I tried any Yes or Emerson, Lake & Palmer, I couldn't believe I had ever been into the stuff (the latter more than the former).

I still love catching "I've Seen All Good People" and "Roundabout" on the radio.

I've Seen All Good People by Susanna Hoffs and Matthew Sweet.

The closest thing I have to a decry musical shame is my deep love of Neal Diamond.

I own a lot of stuff now I'd have been DEAD before owning in high school.

Yes. Not the MCR, obviously, but I still kinda reflexively wince at owning stuff by Cobra Starship. And I'm still a little appalled that I have songs by both Justin Timberlake AND Brittany Spears. (Both of which are Plei's fault. I BLAME HER.)

Flashback city. In many ways. whistles innocently

Brittany Spears

Well, at least you proved you're not a real fan since her name is spelled Britney :)

It is? Huh. All I know is that on her last tour she had a giant pink & black croquet mallet that should be MINE, dammit.
