"The Pusher" (Hoyt Axton) performed live by Steppenwolf at the Olympia in Detroit (1969?), 4th row (my ears are still ringing). It was a mind-boggling awakening to loud, fuzzy, gutteral, blues-rock ... thank God!
First song to "Blow You Away"...
What was the first song that hit you between the eyes and took over your mind? Something that really put you into an altered state (without the drugs).
The first time I heard "Whole Lotta Love" in 1969 I couldn't believe what my ears were hearing. Jimmy Page's guitar grabbed me by the head and turned my brain into a Denver omlette.
