For me personally it would first be Genesis (yeah yeah) whose live album Seconds Out impressed me so much at 17 years old and turned me onto progressive rock. Second would be Iron Maiden, who two years later got me into heavy metal, something I had assumed was loud, noisy and dirty. I was right of course, but there was something there I had not expected: well crafted and well played songs.

And thus began my descent into the maelstrom that is music.

How about yourself?
