I got this idea from a radio talk show while driving home yesterday: Name your favorite album (no “greatest hits” or soundtracks allowed), TV show and movie from your four actual high school years. Here are mine:
Album: “Meet the Beatles.” For sheer cultural impact, no other album comes close. Plus, it was a great album, No. 59 of all time according to Rolling Stone.
TV show: “The Andy Griffith Show.” This was a real cultural phenomenon. The morning after every show, as we’d gather in the gym at Fayetteville Senior High School waiting for the hallway doors to open, everybody was talking about the previous night’s episode.
Movie: “Charade” with Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn. My serious picks would have been “To Kill a Mockingbird” or “Becket,” but “Charade” still edges them out.
