First Album: TaM, SR

All this talk of first albums, etc., brought a memory to mind that was long
buried and I would just like to add it.  The first time I heard AoF
was when I was in the Navy, and a friend had just gotten the album.  I was
at his apt. having a going away party, as I shipped out the next morning
for 9 months.  We had enjoyed many " hand rolled" cigarettes dipped in a
peculiar oil I had never seen before, but smelled very much like hashish.
As I lay on the floor in a near paralytic state, the part came on right
before Revenge of Vera Gemini, you know, where Patti says "You're boned,
like a saint..."  And I felt as if I was shocked with about 10,000 volts
and literally jumped up off the floor. Guess it was a moving
experience in the literal sense.  Anyway, I guess you had to be there.
What was the sad part is that I had to wait 9 months to get back and buy
the album.

Duane
