What was your VERY first music purchase?
I was thinking today about the first record I ever bought and how old I was at the time. It think back to how that purchase completely dictated the course of my musical choices through the years and the influences on my taste that never really left me.
The first record, and I mean vinyl people when it was the only game in town and 8 tracks were just starting to make a dent in the market, was a 45 by Led Zepplin containing "The Immigrant Song" and on the b-side was a song called, "I think, Hey Hey What Can I do". I was 8 years old and so proud.
My brother, who was 16, was into Zepplin, Black Sabbath and Steppenwolf. And I was completely engrossed in that scene (just because I thought everything he did was sooo cool).
Studying my current CD collection, I see that the musical influence remains though the names of the bands have changed.
