  • who started you playin?

    as i get close to 50 i want to ask you guys who started you playin? we all have heros, but who was the first 2 or 3 players made you wanted to pick up the instrument. While I love Geddy, Geezer and Steve Harris, a young 6 yr old, was changed by C.F.Turner. Mars Cowling and Mel Schacher forever!

              A good friend with an extra guitar. I was intrigued by the difficulty of it, so... I had to try it.
              I like black and white guitars

                  My friends older brother played the solo to Light my Fire for me while flipping through the tab book, after that I knew I wanted to play guitar.

                    Randy Rhoads, Mick Mars, Jake E. Lee - Blizzard and Diary were two of my first metal albums and blew me away as a kid, especially Randy's playing.The first Motley videos came out on MTV - Looks That Kill/Shout At The Devil - Mick and Nikki with those BC Rich's were too damn cool, fast-forward a few months and I went to my first concert, Ozzy and Motley Crue on the BatM tour - Jake E. Lee live was awesome and from there it was all over.

                        Not sure if it was anyone particular, but the sound of the guitars on Iron Maiden's Piece of Mind album is what drove me. The sound of the overdriven guitar was power in my mind!

                              Very first guitarist I listened to.
                              Had an album and now I don't know what the title was.
                              I was four years old and listened to it obsessively.

                              Chet Atkins.

                              After that it was Terry Kath of Chicago that got my attention.
                              25 or 6 to 4.
