Pantera blew me away the first time I heard Walk. Got all their studio albums after that.

Led Zeppelin was first but Van Halen really got me hooked.

Probably the Beach Boys but the first LP that I bought was The Animals first album. The Ventures and The Kingston Trio were in the mix as well.

Metallica's AJFA and Iron Maiden's Powerslave albums changed my life. I'd listen to those cassettes over and over again until I had every note and lyric memorized.
Those two albums inspired me to start playing guitar and are still a huge part of my playing style.

Ramones and AC/DC....Two bands I loved the first time I heard them and still listen to today.

Dire Straits. "Sultans" still has some of the best guitar work around.

The Doobie Brothers when led by Tom Johnston.

You know, before Michael McDonald took over and ruined their sound.

Metallica. I heard “One” and “Blackened” and was immediately and forever forged in the metal fires. That album gets panned by the band and a lot of purists for being so guitar-centric in the mix and not so cohesive, but it’s a riff salad that turned a lot of people into guitar players. Justice set me on the path, no question about it.

Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath, really.

My first music love was KISS, but I soon realized they were all show and no substance and I moved onto other more talented acts.

The Beatles, back when I was just a wee child Cool

My buddy’s older brother liked Def Leppard’s High 'n' Dry album. I heard it often when at their house but it didn’t hook me. Then Pyromania came out and I was hooked from the first time I heard it. Might have been my first cassette purchase.

The Killers are a fun band to see live.

Have seen them 3 times - Vegas, Atlanta, Raleigh.
