Ground zero for me can be traced back to ONE record. Machine Head. The first time I heard MH I was at a friends house. His older brother had the record, and was a complete metal head long before the term was coined.

Even before the Zeppelin obsession kicked in and never let go, there was Machine Head.

They are sooo under rated. I've seen 'em twice and they are in my top 5 of all time.
I got to chat with Ian Gillan in a bar in downtown Buffalo for a good 15 minutes. He is a very interesting and engaging person to talk to.
He did Stevie Nicks back in the day, btw..., So he said.

Smoke On The Water was the first 45 rpm record that I ever bought.
I must have spun that a million times in the first month that I owned it.
I was hooked from there, so I guess that would have been ground zero for me.

I think Smoke on the Water MIGHT have been the first song I ever learned on my dad's guitar, along with a million other kids.

1962 Gibson Melody Maker double cutaway through a Maestro amp. When the tone wasn't distorted enough I bought a Big Muff.

First song me and everyone of my friends learned as well. Easy tune to play with one string but never got good at playing both E & G at the same time.

May have to do this one in parts, but I'll start with a few from my collection.
Many I had to list the full album because most of it was excellent.

Part 1 in no particular order:

Big fan of Deep Purple as well; and a fan of all the versions of Rainbow. My enthusiasm is somewhat tempered knowing that it's almost universally acknowledged by anyone who's met him, that Blackmore is, perhaps, the biggest a-hole on the planet.
