What Music Did You Grow Up With?

[blkwolf21]

wheres the funny?

[Celerystalksme]

Ummm i grew up on 50's/60's rock n' roll because of my parents...

My sisters who are 13 and 10 years older than me...the influenced Bryan Adams and all various 80/90's pop and rock...

And yeah by the age of 9 i then wanted to develop my own music taste and what appealed to me most was grunge and punk...

Then as the years passed i ventured into all different types of music from all different years...

And i still listen to what has been influenced upon me...but yeah i mostly listen to punk and rock these days...

A couple of the the first songs i remember hearing that left an impression were...
Puff the Magic Dragon (Peter Paul & Mary {i think} )
Who ever that was-lyrics (trailers for sale or rent rooms to let 50cents)
well you get the gist.
next the Beatles came to the states (big impression) and that was when my love for music started taking root.
Growing up and being a kid in the 60&#39;s was (hmm. cant sum thatup in one word)
different, wild, whatever
My parents listened to music a lot. Especially in the car pretty much pop / rock
(thankfully no hardcore country but some country western).
It seeemed like before i knew it all these really cool bands surfaced that were really cool. (mabe not exactly in order but close).

Iron Butterfly
Rare Earth
CCR
Grand Funk Railroad
Stephen Wolf
The Guess Who
The Who
Seals & Crofts
The Doobie Brothers
Cat Stevens (v or ph) ?
Black Oak Ark.
to name a few
oh yeah cant forget...
Frank Zappa

those are a few groups i grew up hearing, then i hit my teen years...
Pink Floyd (Dark Side Of The Moon) came out and i was introduced to
smoke. Wow...(this is it). Still a big floyd fan.

(Charlie Daniels played for free atleast once in the parking lot of this head shop
Headquarters)

Yes
Rick Wakeman
Emerson Lake & Palmer
Foghat
Peter Frampton
Sea Train (would love to find a copy but never will / never got big)
Aerosmith
Nazareth
Santanna
The Eagles
Johny Winter
Edger Winter
Robin Trower
David Bowie
A very wide range of different types of music.
oh yeah cant forget...
Frank Zappa

After high school with the emphesis on high...
Playing Foos Ball (and traveling around and playing tournaments) and listening to
Jeff Beck over and over.
I started listening to more instramental (and kind of jazz)
The Crussaders (Goerge Benson) (Please excuse the wrong spelling)
Brian Auger
also
Kansas
E L O
Little Feet
Dixie Dreggs
The Stones
Timbuck3


Then also some Blues

Now years later i still listen to a lot of the above still off and on.
but also...
Rage Against The Machine/Audioslave
Jonny Lang
Self
Floyd & the list goes on and on...
its funny a lot of music i thought i would never like and in fact didnt like at certain
stages of my life i got into later on or now
my oldest daughter even got me listening to some Emenim, so go figure...
i sure never would of thought it, but looking back ive got such a diversive taste
in many types of music it shouldnt be to suprising.

I enjoy reading and hearing about other peoples history and taste in music and still on the lookout for anything new and different.

I am laughing at the drug references. The first time I got really, really stoned, I was with a few friends and we listened to the Beatles White Album. I was like the kid in Half Baked who thought Jerry Garcia was in his head. What an amazing experience that album is. If you have never listened to it end-to-end, do yourself a favor and get a hold of a copy.

To this day, when I hear Dear Prudence I get this zoned out feeling..."Look around, around, around, around" with that George Harrison riff, at the end of the song.

I am going to put the White Album on right now. B)
