Two come to mind:
A few years ago, after hearing about Tom Waits (I think it was on this forum) I went to the record store and bought the only Waits album they had - Blue Valentine. The first song is Waits' version of "Somewhere" from West Side Story. It begins with a heavily orchestrated string introduction - typical Sinatra-type stuff - then that voice. All that sadness and dirt and pain. Changed my perception of what a singer could be. Waits fan ever since. The other was the first Van Halen album. For the obvious guitar-related reasons, but also because it was the first time that someone made hard rock/heavy metal sound fun. |

Layla.. I had just started to play guitar seriously when this album came out. I was a big Clapton fan but after Cream I was disappointed in his undertakings. Eric needs someone to kick his arse a little and Duane sure did that. I waited around for another round but to no avail.

 I got this as a birthday present at probably a too young age. playing this with the volume cranked gave me a feeling i imagine the kid who cranked MC5's kick out the jams back in the day had. Awsome hard rock album. it may have only blown my mind as a 13 year old but it still blew my mind.

The Paul Butterfield Blues Band self-titled debut release. I walk into Laurie's Records in downtown Evanston, IL one day after high school and see the sleeve displayed on the wall. "Man, these guys look badass!" thinks the young me. I buy the album, go home and put it on the turntable. The needle hits "Born In Chicago" and my life changes forever.
