mythtellerNote: I didn't get a huge response to this on my blog, so let's see what happens here.
We were checking out a new bar last Thursday night (owned by a friend of mine who plays Domaine) called La Distillerie (corner Ontario and Sanguinet). They have a few good beers on tap and make cocktails with fresh fruit. Yummers!
A song came on over the conversation that mystified a few of us for a few moments. I maintained it had to be Boy George while others thought it was George Michael.
In the end, I was disturbed to realized that my ears were sensitive to Boy's particular type of warbling. Which led to these questions:
1. What was the first piece of music that you were given and what format was it in (tape, 45rpm, 33rpm, 78rpm, CD)?
2. What was the first piece of music that you bought and what format was it in?
My first 45rpms that I owned were as follows:
Illusion by Imagination I Love Rock and Roll by Joan Jet and the Blackhearts
Hurts So Good by John Cougar Mellencamp
Jenny 867-5309 by Tommy Tutone
And the first 33rpm LP that I ever bought with my own money was (God, this is embarrassing) Physical by Olivia Newton John
So? Are you ready to 'fess up?
