      I'd say dads in the late 50s were totally into how Eddie Van Halen shredded on "Eruption" on the 1st album, but dads in their early 50s were totally into "1984" and they had at least one friend who would play the opening keyboard riff from "Jump" every single damn time they found a piano. Both cohorts of dads would have listened to their friends arguing in junior high over whether keyboards in heavy metal music are or are not "gay."

      It depends on what your dad called "jazz" - if he was talking about Stan Getz then I would agree with him but if Glenn Miller was your dad's idea of jazz then not so much.

    Love your videos! This list was spot on. I’m a 64 year old dad. I own 90% of the records you showcased. I was into records when I was a kid/teen. Got married and had kids and have been dragging around a milk crate full of records for almost 40 years!
    About a year or so ago, I put together an inexpensive 80’s Sony stereo and started collecting records again. I’ve been buying used vinyl from local stores and record conventions and having a blast.
    Love your videos and hope to check out your shop on my next trip down south!

    My dad’s favorite band is KISS. Named me after one of their songs…
    My mom was a classical pianist, dad was an Air Force fighter pilot and in his 80’s still flys.
    But he raised me on pretty much all the bands you listed. But what he was listening to was allot of Jimi Hendrix, CCR and the lot, but when Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin came on the scene he was hit hard. 70’s and 80’s hard rock and metal are his favorites.

    My dad was into big band and country music. I was (and still am) a huge KISS fan. There were two records we really bonded over. Peter Criss' 1978 solo album and ELO Out of the Blue. We listened to those albums all the time when we went places. The ELO album was the one we listened to the most, and we called it boating music, because we always had it playing on our boat. Fun memories that I would give anything to do one more time.

As a Scottish dad though, he liked some other dad rock: The Police, early Genesis, ELO, 10CC, Barclay James Harvest, and the big one… Supertramp! My dad also loved a compilation (like you I’m not so keen). Well for Father’s Day, my kids got me First Utterance by Comus and Tone Soul Evolution by Apples in Stereo… yes, I pick my own FD presents 😂 Happy Fathers Day! Cheers, Jack

    Hahahahaha. Great fricking video. Thank you so much for making it and honoring us dads from that era. I am 55 and I was smack dab right in the middle of all that.
    Having said that, I was a late comer to the “dad rock” world. When I was growing up my parents were so into music. I swear to you, I was about 12-14 years old before I heard any of this stuff. My dad was what they called a greaser. That is a 50’ term for a guy that loves working custom hot rods, going cruising, fighting and chicks. So up until I was 12-14, all I ever heard or knew about was Doo-Wop. That is LITERALLY ALL THEY EVER PLAYED!!!!! Which I still love to this day. The memories and the emotions of those days in my room for hour on end listening oldies. Man, those were the days.
    So we move to a new area and one of the kids I became friends with asked me if I wanted to go listen to some records. Of course I said, heck yeah… now mind you, ALL I EVER HEARD WAS DOO-WOP. I totally thought that was the only music around. My friend goes into his brothers room and pulled out 4 albums that changed my life FOREVER…
    Van Halen 1
    LED Zeppelin 4
    Rush Moving
    AC/DC Back In Black
    You want to talk about minds being blown!!!!!!!! I could not believe what I was hearing. Where did this music come from? What world was I living in? This could not be more polar opposites. From that moment on, o was into everything.
    When I had kids, I exposed them to everything as well. I played music all the time, even while my wife was pregnant
    My wife was pregnant with our son when Metallica Black album was released. Of course I had a kickass car audio system back in the day. So I would crank the shit out if that cd and my son was kicking and moving all up in there. It was crazy. They ended up being my sons favorite band for most of his childhood.
    Thanks again for an awesome video that hit home for me and I send it to my son, as I am sure he is making fun of me the whole 14 minutes of this video. And I don’t care, I am the happiest dad in the world.
    Keep you the great videos and if you just happen to have a spare blood moon from your new reissue, let me know I just might pick up fro you.
    Take care

    Dillon, you were spot on with a lot of your Dad selections.

Rush, DSOTM, Who’s Next and Stones were rotated in as needed. No CCR, Segar, Huey, Genesis or Beach Boys. Steely Dan came later in life and it was Can’t Buy a Thrill. Another great video.

    At 58, I'm firmly in the "Dadopshere" contemplated here and I heard all of these bands when I got into music in my mid-teens. But I realized that I own only five of these 20 albums. And I'm more into jazz than anything else. I like R.E.M. and The National, and I occasionally enjoy some hip-hop and just recently listened to (and enjoyed) Olivia Rodrigo's 'Guts.' So sometimes I fly in the Dadopshere but more often I don't. :)

    Me and two of my sons did a record store crawl for fathers day.

    Now I was on a business trip to North Carolina back in the 90’s and was very surprised how popular Rush was, as a Canadian I was stoked to hear that

    Now you're holding up Rush's first album. They had not yet found Neil Peart, so John Rutsey played drums on that one.
    I grew up in a place called Richmond Hill, Ontario in Canada, which is Rush's old stomping grounds. They played at our high school a couple of times in the '70s along with bands like Max Webster, Triumph, April Wine and a few other local Canadian acts. If you've never heard the band Max Webster, you should look them up. They were one of the coolest Toronto bands back in the day and they were making the circuit back in the day as well.

    I’m probably older than your dad (75 next month), so my list is a bit different. My dad was born in 1913, a very different time. His favorite was Frank Sinatra, especially his Capitol period. Songs For Swinging Lovers, Come Fly With Me etc. Next would be anything by Ella Fitzgerald. He turned me onto Jazz when I was 12 by playing me Dizzy Gillespie doing “Salt Peanuts”. He loved all the great big bands, Duke Ellington, Count Basie etc etc. When I was 13 (1964) my parents took me to see Nina Simone. Yea, they were pretty hip. Thanks for sharing

    I still remember the first time I heard Boston. I was riding in the backseat of my Dad’s 2002 Firebird on the way into town and we hit a straightaway on the state road right as More than a Feeling started. He cranked it up and I swear it was about as close to a magical experience as I’ve had. I must’ve been 7 or 8. amazing.

    D.A.D (disneylandafterdark) is the most daddiest dad band of all time and it was always in the cd player of my dads car, back in the day

    I've had that Boston album since before I was a Dad around 25 years old. 14 years later with 3 sons, it's still one of my favorites ever.

    You forgot Hair of the Dog!!! All the Dad’s loved that!!!
    I used to catch my Dad listening to my copy of Eat A Peach. I grew up in the 60’s and 70’s and my Dad was a music professor at a small college in North Georgia. A few months before they released their first album The ABB played at the college and my dad took me to see them. They blew both our minds(my first concert). A few years later I’d be up in my room and could here my Dad rocking out to Mountain Jam down stairs.
    He’s no longer with us and I’d like to think he’s somewhere still groovin’ to the Brothers.

    My Dad did not mind me buying records, shook his head, yelled turn that s---t down. When dad was out Mom would ask me to play the Moody Blues.

    As a dad from Rochester, NY, home of Lou Gramm, my ultimate dad rock album is Foreigner 4.
    My dad was a huge Beach Boys fan, which ultimately is my favorite band.
    Great, fun video!

    My father was not that into rock at all. His favorites were Sinatra and Tony Bennett. But I am surprised that you didn’t mention Born in the USA or Jimmy Buffet. Buffett was the first thing I think of when I hear the term “dad rock”. And I heard someone refer to BITUSA as Dad rock just last week when it was the 40th anniversary.

    The odd man out on your list is Pet Sounds. I think most dads will never have heard it except for Sloop John B. It’s way to fey and dreamy to be Dad Rock, and it’s resurrection has been solely at the hands of record geeks, starting in the 90s really.

    I'm the dad you're talking about. But I didn't see any Janis Joplin or Moody Blues or Chicago, of course I could go on and on because they were all pretty good back then! Oh yeah and one more, what about the Doors!?

    My dad was mainly into classical as he was a traveling salesman and it was the most widely available radio music. With that being said he also introduced me to Led Zeppelin (II) and Santana Caravanserai. I still have those vinyl along with a few more he got after listening to my music choices. He got into Golden Earring, Queen, The Who, George Thoroughgood and he also liked my electronic and space music and would borrow mine. We always had music going whether it was doing yardwork, playing cards or just around the house. He and I loved a lot of music though we really didn't get into Rap or Country. I wish I had the ability to organize my vinyl like Dillon does but I still have it and I pull it out over time.
