Royale with Cheese Posted July 9, 2019 Posted July 9, 2019 I was in my bathrobe and I accidentally shot a dart in my neck. For some reason after that, I started feeling really woozy. I started walking and fell into the pool. As I was under water, I heard Simon and Garfunkel's "The Sound of Silence".

WhoTom Posted July 9, 2019 Posted July 9, 2019 My wife and I just returned from a road trip. Along the way, we listened to Led Zeppelin II. I was just telling her that this album was my intro to LZ back in the early 70s, and the first time I heard to it was at a friend's house. We had Whole Lotta Love cranked when his mom came home from work and said, "WHAT in THE HELL are you boys listening to???" Many years later, some college buddies turned me on to the Grateful Dead, mostly through bootleg tapes, so I didn't know any songs, but I loved the jams. When I went to grad school in Binghamton, I found a used record store where I stumbled across a copy of Blues for Allah, so I bought it. The first "song" (actually three songs with no stops in between) was Help on the Way/Slipknot/Franklin's Tower. I was immediately blown away, and to this day it's my favorite Dead song. (Live versions are even better that the studio version.) 1
Augie Posted July 10, 2019 Posted July 10, 2019 I heard Wild Horses on the radio today. Had a little flashback to the Stones in 1975ish (?) at Rich stadium. I don’t think I had heard that song until that moment, and THAT was quite a moment!

ExiledInIllinois Posted July 10, 2019 Posted July 10, 2019 The first I heard, but remember this, with my father in our '64(ish) beige convertible Plymouth Valiant: We'd go to the Coast Guard Exchange (CGX) for his cartons of tax free Camel cigarettes... I had to be about 4-5 years old... 1972-1973 He'd stop on/at the Ohio Street slip and let me wiz in Lake Erie... That's where it all began!!!

(Live versions are even better that the studio version.) My first introduction to LZ. I was 9 or so... we lived in Lancaster and went to visit my Mom's friend in I think Cheektowaga, not sure on that though, it matters not nor does my spelling. Anyways, we arrive and her friend Claudia puts me in the recliner soon after with a headset... she puts LZ2 on and then headed back out to have coffee with my Mom. Her husband was a professor and had a huge reel to reel collection... so, the first time I heard Zep was on a reel to reel tape with whatever the most advanced headphones were out there at that time. As of this time though, I am Zepped out... no corners to turn anymore. Like a lot of other bands. Sometimes I take a couple of years break... but of course that doesn't win out in the end.
