Bob Dylan - Bringing It All Back Home

Probably in ‘66 or ‘67. I still have it, but the original sounds pretty scruffy now, I played the crap out of it on my dad’s KLH “portable record player.” I wrote a paper on “Mr. Tambourine Man” for my sophomore high school English class, in which I’m pretty sure I completely misinterpreted the lyrics.

It's funny, I never got into the Beatles.
I'm not sure why, I just was never exposed to them.
With my new HiFi setup I promised I would rectify this.
It just becomes overwhelming when a band has such a large and varying catalog.
Debating where I should even start.

No, but I know I was surprised later to learn that the Tambourine man was a dealer - at the age of 14 I was still clueless about such things.

I was sipping and Octoberfest under my aspen's enjoy a breezy day while perusing eBay and reverb. I ended up with Pink Floyd's 1979 cut from MSFL Dark Side of the Moon. I've always love Pink Floyd, this album was big for me but to be honest The Wall is my favorite - still digging around for a good pressing.

What about you?
So correction, the album showed up today.
States its a 1973 on cover and disc...Im confused b/c MOFI states 1979
Records looks mint just like seller said!

Gregory Isaacs-Out Deh. My youth was the glorious transition from Jamaican Reggae to Dancehall. A golden period from a small island, the very best of 'pop' music at the time.

My first record was a 45 and I bought two. Beatles Hey Jude and Revolution; CCR Down on the Corner and
Fortunate Son.

Led Zeppelin IV and Houses of the Holy, on the same day, plus a black Led Zeppelin T-shirt with the funky lettering that made my mother think I was listening to devil worship music.

Saved all summer for that.

I’m probably going to regret saying this, but I bought my first record when I was a kid back in 1977 and it was the Star Wars soundtrack. I wasn’t really into music yet but I was into Star Wars.
