96 Tears - Questionmark and the Mysterians!
Music my parents listened to that I liked as a child included Neil Diamond, Simon and Garfunkel, and the Beatles.<br>
My first 45 was Convoy by C.W. McCall. Loved that song.

Believe it or not....the first 45/single I bought was Olivia Newton John crooning Dylan's 'If Not For You'. At age 10 I had it bad for Liv. The first LP I bought was the Chicago album with 'Saturday in the Park' on it. 'Around the World with Three Dog Night' soon followed, though on 8 track as I recall.<br><br>

Scott</blockquote><br>Olivia's music was not a childhood memory for me, but I was part of that club too, Scott! Ha, ha! Hopelessly in love. <img src="http://www.ezboard.com/image/posticons/pi_heartbeating.gif"><br>
A tie between Strawberry Fields and I Am The Walrus......
I seemed to have discovered rock/pop music in 1971 at age 9. My memories of music before 1971 was Dad playing The Lettermen on a Concord reel-to-reel player --- it was terrible. Anyway, in 1971, it was Don McLean's "American Pie." A guilty pleasure was in 1974, "Billy, Don't Be A Hero" by Bo Donaldson & The Heywoods --- the junior high chics dug that song.<br><br>Regards,<br>Michael<br>
The 1st song I recall as a kid was American Pie, my brother used to say "Chevy to the Levy" all day when he was like 4! After that everyday in the summer at precisely 3PM at the town pool they played "Band on the Run." Everyday, like clockwork, maybe because thats when free swim was over and it was a message for the kids to leave! We only had 2 local AM stations that played any music worth listening to!<br><br>
End swim, jump on Schwinn, head to the 5 and dime! Then to LL baseball usually started at 4:30 or so...man great times and memories indeed!<img src="http://static.yuku.com/domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/wink.gif"><br><br>
