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.

Avguygeorge, perhaps you were like Bill Hubbard, out there in "no man's land" and dripping with sweat.

An amazing piece of music. I have two copies on LP, one to play and one for backup in case something happens to the first. Too important a piece of art to ever be without.

Lonnie Mack-"Wham", CCR-"Fortunate Son". My brother is 13 years older and I thinK I was about 5 at the time.

Two more that I've really felt: Santana's Evil Ways and Steely Dan's Do It Again (my personal theme song for two decades).
