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.

The first song "tbma" was my first record purchase.-- Les Paul and Mary Ford's The World Is Waiting For The Sunrise.--(Even tho How High The Moon came out first.)
This was a 78 rpm--played on our windup player. I must have played it so many times the needle cut thru to the other side.(Stylus force must have been 3 lbs.) Altho I must have a million favs---The cd I've listened to the most has to be Roger Waters' Amused To Death. I would come home; put this on repeat and this went on for 2/3 months---Without listening to anything else. This confession may explain somethings about me??
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.
