Music you HATE the most but once you LOVED it

Video Clips.

MTV did a lot harm, though what a splendid business idea.

NPR Newshour just had a segment with Virginia voters about the presidential election.. It was held in someone's house and on a bookcase in the rear of the room were vinyl records.  You could very clearly see Jeff Beck's "Wired". 

Just another reason to love America!

Used to be a huge KISS fan but now I'm down to listening to Dressed to Kill about twice a year and maybe Rock and Roll Over every other year. 

Used to be a Ted Nugent fan but good god I can't stand anything from him, can barely tolerate Great White Buffalo and that's a great tune!

My taste changed radically in 1969 (my teen-combo opened for The New Buffalo---the remnants of Buffalo Springfield. Watching and listening to Dewey Martin play my drumset, with Bobby's brother Randy Fuller on bass, I had an epiphany. Just like "THAT"---the timeless finger-snap---I now "got" The Band. Finally!). I'm embarrassed to name some of the stuff I loved before it did, but will anyway. Nothing as bad as, say, Blue Cheer (perhaps the worst Band of all-time), but not that different, really. Iron Butterfly (oy!), Vanilla Fudge (yee gads!), Cream even, and yes, Jimi Hendrix. Okay, abhor is too strong a term for him. But not the others.
