Love the show, but this episode got me thinking about my first musical memory. Can’t say this was the very first, but I remember sitting at the board in Wizard Sound Studios in NY watching Ian Hunter recording That Girl Is Rock And Roll, maybe 1982.
I was probably 9 or 10. My dad worked with Eddie Kramer, who might have been working this session, as a piano tuner for the studio. Dad had a piano repair/refurb business back then. So that was probably my very first musical memory- the sounds of him tuning a piano. He had a particular repertoire of scales and chord progressions to get the tuning just right.
If you ask me, the Ian Hunter song isn’t great, but it sure left an impression and the session blew out my ears, but this way before the days of hearing protection for little kids.
Thanks for the trip down memory lane and for always putting out great episodes, QLS!
