Your First Music God

[vernonk]

Who was your first music God and why? As a child I loved listening to The Carpenters and looking at Karen, bless her soul. And when David Essex released Gonna Make You A Star it was wonderful. I played that record so often that my grandma insisted I take it off

Depends what you mean by growing up. I suppose I grew up in the 70s but I hit teenage in the 80s and that's when I really started to hear music.

You're a pink toothbrush, by Max Bygraves is one that stays with me. Later I liked Dylan and Donovan.

The very first one - Adam Faith.

Frank Zappa for me, still is in fact, I just love the mix humour and musical talent.
I realise he's a bit of a acquired taste. ;-)

The first few records I loved were early Slade and T Rex records and the I discovered Pink Floyd DTSOTM

Freddie Mercury as a child and then when I hit 13/14 it was Simon Le Bon.

First there was Elvis. Then came Marty Wilde, Cliff, Beatles, Herman's Hermits etc. Finally went back to Elvis.

Marc Bolan but probably because I had a childhood crush on him. For the music, it was definitely Bob Marley.
