I've said it before but I'll say it again, you really are a closet AOR fan, just hurry up and get out of the closet.
Quite possibly, but I highly doubt I'm a closet Eagles fan.

You'd probably dig Hotel California era but not the country rock that went before it.

Does the rest of that music sound like "Hotel California"? Cause if so, then I'm out.

Ok you're out, but talking of AOR check out some of the albums by the bands on the poll above, I'd find it hard for you not to like a lot of them.

Yeah, their are songs I dig from all of those groups. I've just never delved into that particular corner of the seventies.

One of these days I'll send you a PM with ten AOR albums that you need to hear.

Listening to Toto's first album. Two songs in and I'm sold. Asia, Fleetwood Mac, and now Toto? Your prediction seems to be bearing fruit. Send your list.

Will do but there's much better stuff than Asia to listen to out there, but their debut is still worth a listen though.

Put on Crime of the Century, Batty. If you don't like "School" and "Bloody Well Right", I'll eat my hat.

EDIT: Chula, my man! I'd have said Even in the Quietest Moments… but "Give a Little Bit" might start things on the wrong note for him.
