Who was your favorite band during your coming of age

[Pop's2]

Bill Haley and the Comets............

 

[Class III]

Allman Brother's, Led Zeppelin, Cream, Eagles, Jim Morrison, Beatles... Anything from the mid 60's to mid 70's fits in well with the era I grew in. Plus I have three older sisters and two younger brothers so I cover a broad era of music. Best youth music memory is 1969. Sitting in the Beef Room in NOLA after a family funeral. In through the back door walks John, Paul, George and Ringo. They sat at the table next to us. I had an autographed Poloroid picture, but sadly it has been long lost to time.

Class III

I'll go first.....and I just heard "Whippin' Post" and it cast my mind back to those whismical days of teenage mischief and fun.....whats yers?

The Allman Brothers Band - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

You won't believe this-
First time I saw the Allman Bros, they were setting up in the gazebo in Piedmont Park on Sunday afternoon to play for free.
Justa bunch of Bibb county freaks tryin' to make a name.....

Too bad Duane and a bus tangled.

Nobody ever mentions Ten Years After.
Alvin was, IMO, arguably in the top 10 axmen of all time.

Ozzie Nelson and His Orchestra - I don't want to set the world on fire - with Harriet Hilliard (the future Mrs. Harriet Nelson) accompanying with vocals.
