Wow.

My mom likes White Light/White Heat, but isn't big on anything made after
about 1975 or so.

60. I think what makes this particularly interesting is that she
wasn't all that interested in music until a couple of years ago. She
very suddenly got interested in classical music (including
contemporary), and recently she asked me to play her some stuff by the
bands my dad and I are always talking about, and she liked SGM in
particular.
