The Record Room
My conscious musical journey started back in 1984. My grandmother's foster son had Scorpions' World Wide Live on vinyl, and listening to that record completely hooked me. By 1986, Bon Jovi's Slippery When Wet and Def Leppard's Hysteria sealed my fate. The path was set.
Fast forward to today, and my physical media addiction has grown to a collection of over 1,000 LPs and 2,000 CDs. While my roots are firmly planted in rock and heavy metal, my shelves tell a much broader story. I appreciate well-crafted pop, occasionally dive into electronic music, and have a soft spot for classical music—especially the "heavy" composers like Brahms.
