    There's a couple with very special memory trips.

    Judas Priest:British Steel. The first HeavyMetal album I heard, never forget the feeling.

    The Cult: Love. What I listened to over and over again w/my first gf.

    Counting Crowes: August and Everything After. What I listened to a lot when I was staying in N.Y.C. and wandering alone in the streets with nothing to do but look at the city and drink coffee with the winos.

    Yeah, those three would be the tops in that respect.

    Amps: Marshall JVM 410H w/ Plexi Cap mod, Choke Mod & Negative Feedback Removal mod, 4x12", Behringer GMX110, Amplitube 3/StealthPedal

    Half a dozen custom built/bastardized guitars all with EMG's, mostly 85's, Ibanez Artwood acoustic & Yamaha SGR bass, Epiphone Prophecy SG, Vox Wah, Pitchblack tuner plus assorted pedals, rack gear etc. for home studio use.

    I can't pick one. Someone once said "Music is the soundtrack to life" and I couldn't agree more. So many songs, so many memories.

    I can take a shot at one of the first albums that I heard that blew my brains out though. Thats easy. Beastie Boys - Licensed to Ill. Still in my top 10 albums of all time list, and still in rotation at my place after 26 years or so.

    I remember being absolutely blown away by the attitude of it all. Just listening to it made me feel like I was giving the world the finger.

    Then of course, I discovered punk rock.

    Metallica's And justice For All...

    It' marks a turning point in my life. I recieved my first guitar shortly after buying it and this - we all know - was the beginning of a long long journey :-)

    I still love this album and listen to it regular. With our first band we have covered the songs, at least we tried to, we have partied to the songs etc...

    That's a different question. For that one, I have to say Abbey Road. That is how I have always answered that question.

    You're right it is a different question. I was merely trying to get it narrowed down to 1 album that had the most impact and triggered the strongest memories.
