At age 16, I was an a place I had moved from a few years back. I stayed at my formerly best friend's house. At the time, he was experiencing a devastating and prolonged family trauma, and had gone down a dangerous and highly illegal life path. I learned some things I probably didn't need to know, got hot-rodded around the city streets in his buddy's souped up car, and was introduced to an album called Waiting For Columbus. I had never heard of the band. Little Feat? It stuck. Those sounds....
Decades later, he is a successful entrepreneur and computer guy, and a happy family man. Little Feat -- Lowell George era -- is still my favorite band.
Then there's the time I went to NYC, bought London Calling, and spun it for the first time. And again. And again. I didn't get it at first -- but I knew I would, and I knew right off that it would be a long-lasting favorite. That album, which I still love, sent me down more musical paths -- including punk and reggae -- than any single album I have ever owned.
Great thread.
