First album received was a K-Tel 33 1/3(Canadian co. who produced compilations of top 100 songs) - wore it out on my parent's Electrohome console stereo. First album purchased with paper route money was Black Sabbath's Paranoid... After the first 30 seconds my Dad advised me that it was only to be played when he was out of the house! Funny thing is I do enjoy hearing the cuts again but can't take the whole thing at one time. Sinatra on the other hand can play all day long... the apple actually (within time) doesn't fall very far from the tree...
I don't remember much, but I remember......
Not sure about you guys but it seems to me that things are getting a little tense here again and we need to have a little bit of fun! I was enjoying an evening of listening to my rig and then I saw it...my first CD(sorry guys too young for LP's!). I remember everything about the day I got it, the weather, the time, where it was purchase, even the price! The CD was U2's "Achtung Baby" I put the CD in(I have not listened to it in years)and was brought back to a time not too long ago when things seemed.....well, simpler. Then I got to think what a profound impact that one event had on my life, the joy of music. Does anyone else remember there first CD or LP? did it have as much of an impact on you as mine had on me?
