Candy-O was the first album I ever bought. My mom took me to the record store to get it. I was 10. 

First album is a cool thing to talk about. 

For me, Toulouse Street by the Doobies. I still love Listen to the Music, and the Doobies, especially early, pre Michael McDonald stuff. 

South City Midnight Lady, China Grove, Long Train Runnin, Rockin Down that Highway, Another Park Another Sunday, Eyes of silver. Too many to type

I did get to see the Doobies! Sometime around 1990. That was a good show.

I’ve seen the Stones, Moody Blues, Bruce Springsteen, Atlanta Rythym Section, all in STL.  
The Moody Blues flute player was going to do a 5 minute flute solo and told the audience “Please don’t scream or whistle during my solo…it pisses me off” 😂 Well you know what happened next! 😂
