I do have one major musical regret that causes me great shame that I can only admit in the relative anonymity of this forum... STYX!
A co-worker plays the local classic rock radio station at work and they played "The Grand Illusion" album in its horrid entirety. I just couldn't believe I ever listened to that drivel. A "what-was-I-thinking" moment indeed.
Plus one on Styx. It pains me to say at one point in my life my favourite album was "Paradise Theater". Yeah, I used to love "Grand Illusion" with headphones and the lights off. At that time, I didn't have a girlfriend. Coincidence?

Also on my list are; Steve Miller Band, CCR, Dire Straits "Brothers In Arms", The Eagles and Jimmy Buffet (all from oversaturation).

Not long ago I started to listen to Supertramp again. Some tracks are still painful but some of it is growing on me again.
