many of us Boomers do not expect 20-somethings to know much about classic rock - unless they listen to what their parents listen.

Close. I’m 46.

But that’s old enough for me to get a head start on senility. Which is why I misread the ninth question as asking for a “love song” rather than a “long song”.

How is it a stretch to consider Billy Joel a rocker? After all, he is. I noticed one other poster made a similar comment.
