I walked to and from school each day with a transistor at my ear, just like in the photo. The first headphone.
Monster Mash
Lightning Striking Again, Lou Christie
Surfin' Safari
Ray Peterson - Tell Laura I Love Her ...
Meantime my dad spun Sinatra, Crosby, Martin, Bennett, Mathis
But it was the summer of 1967 when I heard Are You Experienced? that my mind exploded. I simply could not believe something could sound like that. Then they handed me the album cover, WTF?!!!!!
The next day I cut school, took a bus into the city and started smoking pot.
