I interviewed Tom Donahue for my high school newspaper when he was at KMPX. He invented FM Rock radio. Huge intimidating man. Scared me to death. 40 years later, his teenage granddaughter attended my church. I had a recording of his voice. She had never heard him speak. He sounded like Orson Welles through a Marshall amp.

Great picks. I agree with the pepper overview. I was 11 when it came out and everyone was talking about including the big kids. Wanting to impress them and be cool I was the first to buy it with my allowance. I was so confused by it because the yeah yeah yeahs and I love you’s weren’t there. It truly wasn’t like anything else we’d ever heard. So strange at first, but it kept pulling me back to it especially with a library of about 12 records.

Had to laugh at your description of Wuthering Heights - had exactly the same impact on me as countless others. A unique talent.

Mazzy, your story about Art Garfunkel reminds me of something I heard years ago. A friend told me that someone he knew, I don't know who they were, picked up a hitchhiker on a road near Winchester, here in England, and it was Art Garfunkel. I've since read that he would hitchhike all over the place, that it was like a hobby he had. This may have been in the 1980's or 90's...I'm not sure when. As for Live/Dead & Bless It's Pointed Little Head, I still have my original copies too, and they still play ok. Best wishes -m.

Great show. It's nice to hear your personal recollections. From your comments, I surmise that we're about the same age. I grew up in the Bay Area region about 60 miles south of San Francisco. I tried to get up to The City as often as possible, riding with my friends who were a couple of years older. I managed to see many top bands before moving to Seattle at age 16, mostly in San Jose at the fairgrounds. I did manage to see Sons of Champlin at Golden Gate Park and saw the fantastic Steve Miller Band at Fillmore West. My first live rock show was Cream at the Oakland Colleseum. My mom took my friend and I to that show and picked us up when it was over, kind of like Almost Famous but I didn't get to meet any groupies or hang out with the band. One time my parents took our family to hear Simon and Garfunkel at the Berkely Community Theater. They sounded fantastic but the sound went out after about 2 minutes into the show and they had to send everyone home. They also took my sister and I to the KMPX studio on another outing. We peered through the window at Tom Donahue but had to stay outside. My parents were pretty cool in retrospect.

Angel Clare is such a beautiful record. I was a little pissed off the 2nd Avenue wasn't on it, but I bought it anyway. I am still very glad that I did. I was a freshman in college in 1971. My girl friend had written to tell me that she was with someone else. I went to a pizza place, most likely Pizza The Hut, and heard Layla on the jukebox. I went to the record store the next day to buy Layla and Other Love Songs. Oh yeah, I bought the single of 2nd Avenue since it wasn't on the album. This was all new to me, and it was great to see the records you picked, and hear your stories. I always liked Alan Sherman's take on Harry Belafonte's Mary Ann,

You caught the Who at the Filmore in 69... I don't have the words.... It would be 20 years before I saw them and Moon had been dead 11 yrs at that point. I'm so jealous. I recently watched another video (Mike Noland?). He was also in SF and he was at the infamous Cow Palace show when Moon passed out! You know more about music than I do, but, I maintain that Tommy is the first rock opera since the phrase was invented as a way to describe what Tommy was to people. Both Tommy and Quadrophenia are life-changing albums.

And for the obverse, not directly related, but maybe sort of, I recall buying the White Album at a Gibson’s store in a small Texas town, trudging home with it through the snow, then hiding it from my parents who were insanely convinced the Beatles signified the End of the World being neigh. See, I’d already learned my lesson when my Mom stabbed Dylan’s Greatest Hits from the Columbia record club about a dozen times with a knife, also gave my copy of Bless it’s Pointed Little Head to a younger sibling to use as a coloring book.

A good friend of mine turned me on to Patti Smith Group in mid 1970's. It was boss. I saw The Who perform Tommy also. But I saw the show at the Met in NYC in June of 1970 (a year prior to being drafted). A funny Dylan story is that when my wife and I were dating in late 1970's she lived in Brooklyn Heights and we frequented the eateries there. One place she liked was Capulets on Montague (killer fries). It was a funky spot on Montague St. and only last year did we find out that Bob Dylan hung out there too. You got some interesting music choices here.

Hey Mazzy, Thanks for sharing. We're cohorts so I'm not surprised that we'd have some overlap; the Beatles (of course), I waited for every album and over a libation could go through song by song. But what surprised me a bit was that you closed with Kate Bush. I too was introduced to her with The Kick Inside Album. Way ahead of her time and many female artist to follow owe her a nod. So why am I surprised? In all of these years I've had exactly one friend who "got" Kate. My sympathies to the rest.

Allan Sherman! Funny story, back in the 90's a buddy handed me a casette (unmarked) and I played it in my car on the way home. This first tune started of with a Tijuana Brass, "Taste of Honey" riff and I almost ejected the casette. Luckily I didn't because it was Sherman's, "A waste of Money" also on the tape was "Harvey and Sheila". Up to that point I only knew his work through "Camp Granada".

Thanx Mazzy. Records that changed my (!!) life.....as far as I remember 'rwas the first LP my brother gave me ("maybe that's something for you" he said), being 14-15 at the time in 1970, and this was a German Rock album by a band called "Rufus Zuphall" (from Aachen which is on the Dutch border), near where we lived. Their debut "Weiß der Teufel" (The Devil might know (?)), was something on the Jethro Tull line, with flute like so many other in the prog era. Second was "Wild Honey" by The Beach Boys and I stil prefer this to Pet Sounds. Third was: Grateful Dead '72 Europe....which is a real masterpiece, may not for the U.S. as they were touring there permanently, but for us here in EU...absolutely fantastic. The SWFIII (South-west radio) played the 3Lps on two sunday in their Pop-shop-special. And they played complete LPs in their Staurday LP-show like "YES Time and A Word". Also on Pop-sho-special the played "C.Santana & Buddy Mile Live!" which is also a breathtaking record. I didn't have the money to buy record until I started jobs during holiday seasons. Still today I remeber the first 6 i got: Allman Bros. Fillmore East, R.Gallagher Deuce, Jethro Tull Stand Up, Steamhammer MKII, Ten Years After Cricklewood Green, Yes Album. My collection has widened since, but these are the records that influennced my musical tast fundamentally. Good luck. Jo

admire you and respect you Mazzy...as you often say... different things effect us in different ways. I know that you or anyone else really cares what I think, but IMO, Quadrophenia is a deeper and "lusher" album than Tommy. I feel like there are things on Tommy that are just trite. But, I still like it. When I was a teenager, early teens, the Tommy movie came out. Maybe, that is what ruined the album for me. There are things on Tommy that still attract me and get to me, but I think the themes of Quadrophenia reach into me more.

"Dark Side..." was the first album that I became aware of as a complete entity and not just a collection of individual songs. I discovered this album (my older brother's) around the time it was released. It was also the first no-skip album for me....an album I would ALWAYS listen to from start to finish. "Alive" from Kiss. Another album I discovered around the time of its release, my friend Shawn brought a copy in for "music day" in the 6th grade where we could gather in groups and play records on those small, all-in-one record players that every school kid from the '60s and '70s is familiar with. It was my first real introduction of hard rock, the genre that would ultimately be my favorite. "Boston". Their debut. This album crushed it in '76-'77. An amazing and (then) unique sound. This album has NEVER left my rotation in spite of my shifts in musical preferences in my teens, my 20s, my 30s....... "Led Zeppelin". Another debut album. I was familiar with LZ from the radio but I had never listened to one of their albums. I borrowed this album from a friend while a freshman in high school and it blew me away. I think I listened to it 3 times that evening and as soon as I had $8, I went out and bought my own copy. Because of this album I discovered my first (and still most important) guitar hero, and then there was that drummer.......

I have an idea for a video you might like to do. In my opinion, there isn't enough love shown for the Discogs community as users/individuals. Three of my records that changed my life were found by paying close attention to three users; Eirikstim (that was Ken Boothe - Let's Get It On), rastislav.sutak (for Tuck & Patti - Love Warriors) and savakntr (Jennifer Warnes - Famous Blue Raincoat) who sadly looks like is no longer active. The Ken Boothe and Jennifer Warnes are in my collection. Highlighting some of the 150 users I consider as my "idea suppliers" could be a good idea, because not a lot of personal information is shown on each profile. Some other records that changed my life include: Savage Garden self-titled also in my collection as vinyl, Scientist - In Dub, and Grant Green - Live at the Lighthouse.

Yeah, that song written about all the houses in a row in Daly City. Right next to San Francisco.

Visiting Seattle this week. Picked up about 7 LPs that I hope will change my life at Easy Street!

A guy in the vinyl community in 2017 sent me some hard rock and metal records and he used the Art Garfunkel record as a stiffener! The cover was defaced with drawings on Art's face! I was repulsed that someone can deface ANY record that way! I cleaned it, put it on, and I absolutely loved it!😊

Wow, the Art Garfunkel story was so worth the price of admission! You didn't just give him a ride, he asks for a ride. You had dinner and talked politics and music at 18 yrs old!! And your life went all downhill from there. Just joking. Amazing story. love your channel.

I would have kept Art's roach too. I have bowl from which Bob Dylan ate his cereal. Cap'n Crunch as I recall> LOL. I keep my guitar picks and slides in it.
