You remember different songs for different reasons. First date? Days of Thunder so I always think of that girl when I hear GnR doing Knocking on Heavens Door. (yes I realize how badly I dated myself) One of my best friends passed away when I was 18 so I always send his favorite song, Seven Mary Three's Cumbersome, out to him. Lost my virginity to Pearl Jams Ten Album, although I think I was done by the middle of Once. (track 1)
Well the first CD I ever owned was Duff McKagen's first solo project : Believe In Me. Duff was the bassist for Guns and Roses and more recently, Velvet Revolver and Loaded. It was a Christmas gift from my grandmother to go along with my brand new "boom box." Since Duff by himself wasn't a superstar, radio stations wouldn't give this disc the time of day, and YOU lost out in some of the best music of the year. Lenny Kravitz, Jeff Beck, and Slash all guest on it, and there is just enough of a Guns and Roses stamp to keep it heavy, relevant to it's time, and fun in twisted, dark road sort of way. Below is my favorite track from the album, I Love You.
