I was 11 when "The House Of The Rising Sun" came out in 1965 and swept me into the rock world. I was already playing in the grade school band and grew up with the piano. One of my uncle's was a college professor and had a Fischer tube receiver. Once I heard "Demons and Wizards" by Uriah Heep and "Survival" by Grand Funk on his stereo, there was no turning back.
What age did the "audio bug" hit you?
I was always into music, and as early as 7 yrs old I would put 2 sources next to each other (2 tape decks or a 8 track, or recoed player) and fade them over each other and play "D.J." all day long, in High School I ran the closed circuit radio station and was the D.J. at the local YMCA for dances to raise money for our "leaders club" and did a few weddings here and there, then I was a D.J. at a lesbian bar for awhile (down guys! these chicks rolled their own tampons) but all the same I look back and I guess I was always some sort of an Audiophile...what about your stories???????????
