Re: Your first album
Posted: 29 May 2011, 20:27oh, and until I turned 10, my favourite all-time song was \'burning down the house\' by the talking heads/
The first album I bought was Toys in the Attic by Aeorosmith from Barker's department store in the new town plaza.
But the second album was Going For the One by Yes.
I used to go to my neighbor's house and play in the basement on his huge speakers. Un-bleepin' believeable. I thought the house was going to explode.
As a 16-year-old, I could not comprehend in the slightest the cosmic lyrics but I did pound away on my drum-set to this whenever I could, dreaming to be in a band...

Awaken
Gentle
Mass
Touching! (LOL)
...
Workings of man
Set to ply out historical life
Reregaining the flower of the fruit of his tree
All awakening
All restoring you
Workings of man
Crying out from the fire set aflame
By his blindness to see that the warmth of his being
Is promised for his seeing his reaching so clearly
Workings of man
Driven far from the path
Rereleased in inhibitions
So that all is left for you
all is left for you
all is left for you
all this left for you NOW...
Master of Images
Songs cast a light on you
Hark thru dark ties
That tunnel us out of sane existence
In challenge as direct
As eyes see young stars assemble
Master of Light
All pure chance
As exists cross divided
In all encircling mode
Oh closely guided plan
Awaken in our heart
Master of Soul
Set to touch
All impenetrable youth
Ask away
That thought be contact
With all that's clear
Be honest with yourself
There's no doubt no doubt
Master of Time
Setting sail
Over all our lands
And as we look
Forever closer
Shall we now bid
Farewell farewell...
Then, the horrors of every parent were realized when I got a listen to Led Zeppelin II, Whole 'Lotta Love and all there other dark, sexual, druggy stuff and tried to play all that on drums and developing a taste for tripping which, later, became destructive.
). I remember making up dance routines to Run C and W, they're such a fun bluegrass band! Rachmanenov (I'm sure that's spelled wrong) got me up for school every morning for years! I went through an awkward phase of trying to conform around 10 or 11 and the first album I actually bought was the Spice Girls... I even went to see the movie!!!
