I have a live tape of the Replacements, can't remember
the year, but they do a kick butt cover of Heartbeat
it's a love beat. Love that song.
Another idea for a thread was when did you discover
that music beside what was "popular" was available out
there, and you became the fan/geek you are now.
Around 1978, in a suburb near Harrisburg, called New
Cumberland, a guy opened a store that was trying to be
like a Central Pa version of Bleeker Bob's (his
description, I had no idea what he was talking about
at the time). I remember walking in and just staring
at the walls of all these wierd picture discs, and
singles from england. At that time I was mostly a FM
radio metal kind of guy, but going into that store was
a life changing experience. The guy that owned that
store turned me onto to SO much music...Buzzcocks, The
Boys, The Damned, and I remember walking in and him
playing the import of London Calling before it was
released in the US, and just being totally blown away.
anyway..back to lurk/read mode
