You must be a first wave Gen X'er. Those are borderline 70s things.

The Wall was '79. That's not borderline.

the others? yes

Speaking of baseball, The Baseball Bunch with Johnny Bench. And speaking of Saturday mornings, Saturday morning cartoons is something that ended with Gen X, isn't it?

Levi 501 button-ups (early 80s), followed by more fitted jeans (Guess?) with the bottom rolled to taper.

Jams

REO Speedwagon

Feathered hair, followed by permed hair with the rooster bangs.

Yes, that's true! I always hated ZZ Top, however. Remember the Honeydrippers? Robert Plant!

They still influenced me as a kid. My parents switched from Neil Young to ABBA, etc... every weekend.

Speed Racer and Ultraman? Speed was on Saturday mornings, and Ultraman was on when I returned home from school.

If you had "cool" parents, you knew about cool 60s and 70s music too. While my mom listened to Joan Baez and other folk music, my dad had a ton of cool old records like Cream, Led Zeppelin, Velvet Underground, The Rolling Stones, even some early Bowie. And Pet Sounds by the Beach Boys. I loved going through his record collection and of course we had a huge cabinet stereo. We also knew a ton about disco and somehow had a ton of disco 8 tracks.
