A Snapshot of Musical Taste at a Suburban NJ High School, 1978 ...

On a Slog post last week, Dan Savage revealed his fondness for Billy Joel's 'Only the Good Die Young' , adding defensively that he didn't care whether Billy Joel is considered to be cool or not. Leaving aside the question of Joel's present coolness, it made me wonder, was Billy Joel cool back in the day? Well, that's a tricky question to answer. What's easier to answer is whether he was popular at my suburban NJ high school. From 1977-1981, I attended Dwight Englewood , a prep school in Englewood, New Jersey, right across the river from NYC and a hop, skip and a jump from the GW Bridge. It was a small school, with about 100 kids per grade [alumni include Tony Bourdain, Mira Sorvino and Brooke Shields!]. Aside from having an arbitrarily shifting dress-code, a crappy football team and mandatory lunch attendance for all underclassmen, one of our traditions was the senior page. Basically, each senior got a half-page of the Yearbook to post a decent-sized photo and a couple of quotes. Most quoted Bartlett's variety Shakespeare, Einstein, Emerson and Thoreau, plus lots of Tolkien, but many quoted favorite songs. So, by leafing through each senior page, you can get an interesting snapshot of the musical taste of each class. With this in mind, I've compiled a list of each band/artist quoted by each graduating class from 1978-1981, followed by the number of times each was quoted. As a caveat, I wouldn't call this list wholly representative. Each page quoted the handful of lyrics that senior found humorous or meaningful, it didn't catalogue every band they liked. For instance, only one student during this period quoted Blondie, but they were popular. Everyone knew them. 'One Way or Another' and 'Heart of Glass' were heavy-rotation radio hits. You couldn't not hear them. However, certain acts got quoted on a regular basis and, by looking at the heavy-hitters, one can get a good sense of what was 'in'.
