Music: Re: [Classic_Rock_Forever] Top 5 bands of all time in order,revised

That is absolutely the case. I was 13 when I heard Slippery When Wet and I was sold. New Jersey was the first album I bought (took me 3 weeks of pocket money to save up for it too.)

My mum played Elvis , The Beatles and Donovan when I was growing up and my dad played Brass Band music every Sunday morning whilst cooking breakfast. So I had an eclectic musical start.

I think that the episode of Criminal Mind you mentioned will be on TV here in the UK in a couple of weeks, I'll keep an eye out for it

I am a Zombie fan.. not just the music but the films, art all of it. He just strikes a chord with my sensibilities. He gets a lot of knocks from Horror fans who claim he ruined they Halloween films. I couldn't disagree more.. he re-invented a mythos that was so tired and played out and gave it a modern relevance.

All The Best

I watched an episode of Criminal Minds last night. Something that the character 'Reed' said was interesting. He mentioned that music that is discovered when a person is around the 14 yrs old range, will have the most impact on that person.

He went on to say that musical tastes can/will certainly evolve, but that time that you discover something yourself, rather than listening to what your Parents play is a very powerful time of life.

I'd agree with that, and obviously some of us got some excellent direction from Parents or other influences.

I have no idea if Bon Jovi fits that bill for you, but it is interesting to say they will always be in your top list. I get it, and I guess that's why Alice still hits home for me.

..and its nice to see another Rob Zombie fan out there!

Cheers,

Clint
