I was 4 in '72. I didn't start collectin' the kind a vinyl I got now til' bout 1980, when I was 12 or so.  Despite my exposure to many things, I am still raised on my mamas radio.  I remember "Blinded By the Light"(can't recall which version) from when I was just a lad sittin in the back seat of my mamas Delta 88.  We were caught in traffic on the freeway in California, surrounded by golden hills.  "Blinded By the Light" came on the radio.  This is about 1974 or so.  My mama tol' me the song was about 2 kids who took acid and laid on the side of a hill starin' into the Sun until they went blind.  I was intrigued...

So I've got this song, "Listening Wind" by the Talking Heads, running through my brain when I wake up today.  It's still there.  I like, or should I say liked the Talking Heads OK, had a couple of records by them, but I haven't really listened to them all that much since breaking up with a girlfriend who was really into them.  We even went and saw David Byrne a couple of times  Anyway, after living together for a couple of years, she and I split up, and I haven't really listened to Talking Heads all that much since then, the times I have, it reminds me of her and I get really annoyed with different aspects of the music.  Maybe that's why I have such esoteric taste in music, so old girlfriends' tastes won't interfere with my listening, I don't know.  Trust me, not being able to listen to Talking Heads is a small price to pay to not put up with her.  But it does weird me out when I have them playing in my head all morning for no apparent reason.

This made me think of the time I moved out of an apartment where I was living with this girl because she listened to too much R.E.M...

One day I decided I couldn't take it anymore so I called a cab, threw everything I owned in the trunk and moved into a room farther downtown. Aside from getting me away from the REM, it put me closer to work (where I had learned of the vacancy) and around someone (my roommate) who had good taste in music. Sonic Youth's "Sister" had just been released and I heard it there.

Eventually the girl caught up with me and ended up moving in with me there for a while.

R.E.M. has grown on me since & I occasionally like hearing them despite any associations they may have had, etc.

Ol' Fleetwood Mac playin' with various blues musicians; Buddy Guy, Willie Dixon, Shaky Horton, Honeyboy Edwards, Otis Span and I think that says S.P. Leary.  Title unknown. Recorded in the studio somewhere in Chicago, 1969.  I don't know much about this album.  It came to me from my cousin one day in the mail.  Enjoyed listenin' to it today though.  Very old time electric bluesy.  You wouldn't even know that anyone in the band was Fleetwood Mac.  Like unrecognizable as Fleetwood Mac.

Old Crow Medicine Show_self-titled debut.

O!  and on the radio today...

Fabulous Thunderbirds[Jimmy Vaughn(Stevies Bro) on guitar]_"Aint That Tough Enough"(saw these cats once at the D.C chilli cook-off, circa '89.  That was a good time.

Cindi Lauper_"Time After Time"

and some Metallica on the radio too...

I think that one has been released under a couple of different titles, Vintage Years and Live In Chicago.  It's smoking, but what disappoints me is that it doesn't have a few of my favorite Peter Green-era tunes on it, like "Oh Well", "Rattlesnake Shake", "World Keeps Turning" (redone by the Linsay Buckingham-Mac as "World Turning"), "Black Magic Woman" (popularized by Santana) or "Green Manalishi (w/the Two-Pronged Crown)", which was recorded to great effect by Judas Priest.    It is a very impressive record, though, and you are right in that it sounds absolutely nothing like the Fleetwood Mac of Rumours or Tusk.  Hell, it sounds nothing like the Bob Welch-era stuff like Bare Trees and Kiln House.  It's a smoking blues-rock album in the tradition of John Mayall, and it makes an excellent soundtrack to TBPITW sessions.
