First song to "Blow You Away"...


What was the first song that hit you between the eyes and took over your mind? Something that really put you into an altered state (without the drugs).

The first time I heard "Whole Lotta Love" in 1969 I couldn't believe what my ears were hearing. Jimmy Page's guitar grabbed me by the head and turned my brain into a Denver omlette.

Sweet Leaf by Black Sabbath. In eighth grade Ozzy Ozbourne's first two solo albums were a big deal (although they are really clownish in retrospect). I was a guy in our gang who discovered Sabbath and introduced with something like, "Yeah, Ozzy is cool, but check THIS out."

And I haven't tried to kill myself even once in the ensuing twenty five years.
