The first time I heard it was in the early 90s. Was in the truck with my best friend (same guy) and he put it on. I was amazed. Not just amazed at the fantastic songs, but at the fact that it was from the 70s and had gone under my radar all that time. "Why the hell didn't you tell me about this before?!" I was pretty pissed off at him. "I thought you knew, man!" he said defensively. "No, never heard of it."
Well, Bat Out Of Hell is a real masterpiece of (male?) nostalgia. I love good music, and when I hear something I like, wow, it's like discovering a treasure chest sometimes, and this was one of those times. Driving around in the summer with the windows rolled down and the volume turned up singing and smiling along with your best friend... definitely a summertime/good-times album.
I have often wondered if females connect with this music in the same way as the males I know do.
