Silenced Fred Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 not necessarily your favorite band or whatever, but a song you heard for the first time and it changed you. For me, it was this and this the guitar sounds changed me as a little kid

daveinspain Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Listen to this, even if it's not your thing.....
Shnate McDuanus Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Changed the way I think about music, forever.
kaleb Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 La Villa Strangiato, Working Man, Anthem, 2112 and Something For Nothing by Rush, Stairway to Heaven, Good Times Bad Times, Heartbreaker, Nobody's Fault But Mine, The Rover, and The Lemon Song by Zeppelin, the whole Highway to Hell album, all of Tom Petty's Damn the Torpedos, anything Gary Moore ever did, all of Aerosmith's Get Your WIngs as well as Mama Kin, Appetite For Destruction, and Cliffs of Dover, not to mention Bridge of Sighs and Scuttle Buttin'!!!!!!!
FirstMeasure Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 When I was 12 and hear "Scuttle Buttin'" by SRV. I couldn't believe the explosion of notes from such a clean sounding guitar. I was too young remember the first time I heard Leon Russell, but I'm sure my mind was blown.
grampa Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 I've been listening to music for a very long time, in the early 50's there was the Met sponsored by Texaco, some of the earliest music I remember. Maybe the one song that changed things a lot for me ws "House of thhe Rising Sun" by the Animals. Who knew folk music could be rock music?
dem00n Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qd4q0Xx-u1Y Theres a few more but that is very powerful... Damn, one million views huh?
Enmitygauged Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Pearl Jam Yellow Ledbetter. First time I heard the rawness and angst of this song crossed with one of the best guitar solos of all time I was hooked. For a song that was never released as a single but merely a B-side to reach the top ten on the charts expresses how good of a song it is.
Jantha Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 There's been many, but the more memorable of them are the ones that shifted my musical tastes... Government Flu by The Dead Kennedy's http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=678shOI0wdg

FirstMeasure Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Yea, going to see Mr. Big open for Rush back in 1991 and expecting glam metal B.S. Then they bring this kind of stuff!
Tman Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Long ago and far away. I don't know what it was about this song and the understated guitar playing on the 335 and the lead solo at 1:52, but it really changed things for me as a guitar player back in the 70s. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVjN3t8cj74 Edit: I hope the freakin advert doesn't come on, it only lasts a second if it does and you can choose to stop it and listen to the song if you wish.
damian Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Anything by the Bay City Rollers !!!!!!! .....
SGSpecialguy Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Fu©king amazing!!! And the master of guitar himself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2h2ywNdG45I oh hell yes !! one that "blew me away " though was this tune, I LOVED the drop tuning 3/4 of the way through, that was amazing to me when this first came out, I remember my best friend at the time had the vinyl first and brought it over to my house, when I heard this song I was blown away http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ReuBms-qZQk&feature=results_main&playnext=1&list=PL4D04AD679973B39D

Morkolo Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 That's the one that introduced me to Billy Sheehan. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8Q_J2fIKPI I was just starting to learn how to play bass when a friend of mine put on Joe Satriani's Live From San Fransisco CD. He said you've got to hear this and it was Stu Hamm's bass solo, I improved so much while I was learning that piece.
charlie brown Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 I'm showing my age, but...the one song (of so many) that "blew" my mind, was "Eight Miles High," by The Byrds! I had never heard anyone play a "jazz" lead, on an electric 12-string, and so beautifully, too. Another one, for making me crank of the radio every time it was on, for giving me chills, too...Cream's "Crossroads," from "Wheels of Fire!" I still cannot listen, to either one of those 2 particular songs...quietly! CB
