Brian Mac Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 "Bus Stop" by the Hollies. I wore the thing out on one of those little record players. You know, the ones that looked like a little suitcase when you closed it including the clamp latches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColoradoGal Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 I grew up in a fundamentalist church who thought Elvis and Beatles were the DEVIL!!! We didn't have sex because it might lead to dancing! Paul and Paula were probably bad too, but I was a rebel!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnniekNY Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 That's OK,Matt!! I'm lucky I remember my name half the time First concert: 1977 - Lynyrd Skynrd - BUT their plane crashed the NIGHT before the concert....didn't know until we showed up at Madison Square garden in NYC and found hundreds of people crying, telling me not to use the ticket in tribute. Saw T-Rex, Ted Nugent and new guy called Rex Smith, who did not go over very well with the crowd.He was in a Broadway play a few years ago - The Scarlett Pimpernel - and i spoke to him about the concert...he couldn't believe the hostility of the crowd but he did get seen by a producer that night who hired him to do a TV movie called "Sooner or Later"....oh my LORD...was he cute!!!!!!! Still is!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julie Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 1st album I purchased: Bobby Sherman: Portrait of Bobby1st 45 I purchased: hmmm....probably "Julie, Julie, Julie, Do you Love Me"Another one of my firsts was "Lonely People" America. That song always appealed to me. Looking back now, it was a good choice, taught me about harmony and background singing.You know, my folks (well, Santa really) bought me my 1st record player and stand when I was 4! The bought me at least 20 or more LP's to go with it. Quite a selection. I'm sure I still have all of them. A nice bunch of classical, kid stuff (Tubby the Tuba--remember that little gem) and even some religious music. This would have been in 1964.Julie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
