Related: About this forumOk, Following up on Glam's "1st Band I was into" thread PART 2
The 1st Band that I was convinced was the absolute best - The band who's symbol I painted on the back of my denim jacket was -
Blue Oyster Cult
To be honest the one big reason was that if you bought Spectres (Which had the big single "Godzilla" ), you could buy any of their older records for 50% off at Goody's.
So for the price of 2 albums I got 3 BOC records that I played over and over for weeks
So, Spectres, the debut record and Secret Treaties taught me what rock was about back in 1977

(13,191 posts)9. I'm all in on ATCQ - Q-tip especially is a hero of mine
But Wu Tang Clan kind of missed me - Now, I realize completely that I was never the target to begin with, but I didn't get into them as much as other Hip Hop acts
