That’s so cool.
I picked up on Deep Purple in the mid 70’s, a late comer, no doubt.
I happened to become a member of the “Columbia House” music scam at 13 without my parents knowledge. I had know idea what I was buying at the time. In addition to getting more Beach Boys records than anybody needs, I happened into Jethro Tull and that was the best thing I could have heard to form my appreciation, a real appreciation for music and all its complexities.
LOL! Gotta admit I got sucked in to that too.
