My parents came to the US from Germany after the end of the war, so all we had really was classical... but with my little earpiece and a small transistor radio I listened in my room to Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath... the first LP (that's a 12" record by the way) I ever bought was George Carlin's "AM and FM" because I mistakenly thought it contained music played on AM and FM radio (RIP George), with 'Seven Words You Can't Say on TV', funniest think I ever heard
