my family moved from Puerto Rico to Houston Texas in 1980. My parents listened to a lot of latin music salsa etc, with my mo being very heavy into bee gees, paul anka, neil diamond, the platters, etc. Horrible shit really.
I just happened to live in an apartment complex that got cable TV very early on, and got to watch the MTV for a couple of years before I bought an actual album. by that time I just felt an affinity to the metal and hard rocking stuff.
the only album of any of my first 5 that I still listen to and love unconditionally is VAN Halen 1984. Pyromania I never listen to, and shout at the devil is 90% CRAP, unmitigated CRAP, with the single worst cover of helter skelter ever. Metal Health is 75% filler, and the first def leppard album sucks royally.
