I don't even remember which song it was, but it was a Talking Heads song a cute older girl in the neighborhood was listening to one day. I guess I was 11 or 12. I think it was Don't Worry About the Government.
EDIT - Not sure how I forgot that it was Drugs. I had to hide that tape from my parents because of the name of the song.

Jimi Hendrix - Machine Gun
Well, it's officially a "Band of Gypsy's" song.

A total mindblower? It had to Bohemian Rhapsody the first time around.
It was event listening when it came on the radio to dissect all the layers.

Sanford Clark, The Fool
I played this over and over on my 45 rpm player until the record finally wore out.

Like Hoodie above, Stairway to Heaven stands out. I remember riding in the backseat of my dad's car on the interstate in the dark and Stairway coming on the AM station we were listening to. I was probably buzzed off of being hotboxed with tobacco smoke, it was in the mid 70s. But the sounds that came out of the speakers from the beginning, and built up to the jam part, blew my mind. I could not understand what all went into making those sounds that were coming out of the speakers. That memory was one of the things that made me want to play music.
Another song is Lesson In Violence, by Exodus. That fast tight, brutal guitar riff that opens the song is killer, really mind blowing.
Ascension by Coltrane is mind expanding. Hard to see into the world that produced those notes that create song.

i have always been into music, even as a little kid. I was born in 1980 and I would listen to all my parents albums as a child and I can distinctly remember loving the Beatles, which i still do, so I listened to those records a bit.
Then the needle dropped on "Tomorrow Never Knows"...i think i forgot to breathe. Even as a probably 8 year old, i heard and felt things that I had never heard or felt before. It was mesmerizing.

Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb. My dorm roommate at college bought The Wall album a couple of days after it was released.
After all these years, it's still probably my favorite song. Very strong song, & album.

Probably Inna Gadda Da Vida, Keep Me Hanging On (Vanilla Fudge cover) , My Back Pages (Dylan), Wild Thing (Troggs).
That era had so many it's hard to pin one down plus my memory keeps getting farther and farther away.

At the age of 12, in 1980, I was looking for a Led Zeppelin album to purchase because I had heard a couple of songs that I liked, but didn't know the names. Of course their albums rarely listed the titles, so I purchased what seemed to be a "greatest hits" work, The Song Remains the Same (LOL). I could barely listen to any of it, at the time, but a friend of mine, who's on this board, stayed up late during one sleepover, and the next morning he said, "Oh yeah, I discovered a cool song on that album you bought." It was Stairway. Two years later I sat on a bench in the local mall holding Presence, knowing that it would be the last "new" music for me of the band that I loved the most - at least until CODA.

I Am The Walrus. It was jaw dropping for an eleven year old me in 1967. It still amazes me to this day.
