The first piece of music that got to you?

[Steve983]

First song that really hit me? Funeral For A Friend/Love Lies Bleeding by Elton John was an early favourite when I was about 12 or 13. That was before I discovered Yes, Genesis, Rush & Pink Floyd of course!

Mine was Eagles - The Last Resort. Was about 15 years old and first realized music could challenge you intellectually.

Satisfaction by the Rolling Stones. It was the first song that grabbed me emotionally. I can remember where I was when I first heard it - in the kitchen, aged about 11.
Two years later, A whiter shade of pale by Procol Harum was a milestone for me.

I don't know whether it's true but an ex work colleague told me a tale about an interview with the lead singer of Procol Harum and he was asked what A Whiter Shade of Pale was about. Supposedly he replied "I don't know we were stoned half the time"

Having grown up listening to my Dads Glenn Miller albums hearing the Beatles Blue and Red albums were an eye opener. Songs like we can work it out really struck a chord with me,.
