Before my teen years, I just listened to the car radio on Sunday afternoons -- mostly local 'free' (pirate) radios though it was more about being in the car (just sitting in the garage) than about the music. I also remember listening to a lot of 80s pop on the radio whilst playing with my Lego and Matchbox From around twelve years old, I went straight into EBM & industrial electro bands and that hasn't really changed since though I don't mind any type of music as long as it sounds good or quirky

i used to listen to my mom bi*** at me for getting in trouble, not doin my homework etc .....


music wise i used to listen to just about anything metal. maiden, priest, ozzy, ministry, kmfdm, mdfmk, cryptkicker, mushroomhead, nin... think you get the point..

started with the grand ole opry[spelling] and country , elvis and the everly bro's......hell my town still had square dances on week ends
and then the real world came to small town Illinois
my cousin lit the first doobie I ever smoked , and then he put on Black sabath paranoid
gave me a alice cooper album [Killers] to take home and told me of a few Radio stations to find [WLS chicago]
and I never looked back this was "73"

In weeks all was right with the world we were best friends till he died in "90" of throat cancer
I saw him days before he died he came home from florida , came to my house first to gave me some of his swamp weed he called it and he smoked holding his finger over the hole in his throat ,and he gave me another album that day , nothing special just a Rolling stone flowers album "original pressing"
said it was his first album and wanted me to have it.........he was 4 years older than me I was 11 in "73" and am 47 now
I'll never forget him or the change he made in my life or the music he saved me from and pointed me towards
and yes its still small town Illinois.......been great for ever....but now days even small town Illinois is being ifiltrated by the bad out there..............OH I miss my childhood

Sweet!

thanks for the responce guys, some cool stuff

GOD (todd) RUNDGREN.
such an all round performer.

sweet lol

It appears that only Nisakiman goes back as far as I do. I can remember shoveling snow out to the road and then walking 20 miles to school. Each way. Seriously, I grew up on AM radio and really do remember getting my first transistor radio. That was a major event for people then. It was Top 40 and history shows that the radio stations were all taking payola (bribes) to promote certain artists. FM showed up in the mid 60s when it became a serious hangout for long extended cuts that wouldn't fit into the mandatory 3 minute AM slot or were from artists that neither looked like nor sounded like the kind of people you would want your daughter to date.

I guess I became a pirate with my first radio after I bought a cheap tape recorder that ran at 3 3/4 ips and used an external microphone you placed in front of the tiny cheap speaker on the radio. By the mid 60s I had graduated to a large, and heavy, Sony reel to reel machine at 7 1/2ips. I then bought a nice turntable so I could simply borrow people's records, record them directly through the phono preamp, and return them immediately. Most people were OK with this but some, future greedy RIAA executives no doubt, called me a leech and wanted to know what I was contributing to society. Those I would either ignore or invite over to listen to my great stereo system and get high together.

Reel to reel gave way to cassette which was, fidelity wise, a disaster, but then so was the bulk of the music in the 70s. Talk about the Dead Zone. Outside of the socalled arena groups, like Journey and REO, most of the music was absolute crap which sounds as bad today as it did then.

By the 90s my system was long gone as was most of my interest in music. The car radio was pretty much it and remained so until one day I discovered Napster. And, as they say, the rest is history.
