Everyone has their special FM introductions they hold dear.
I played in my first "band" in 8th grade, in my friend's basement. Not a real band, but 4-5 of us doing the best we could at that point.

We did Over My Head, but at that point I wasn't completely obsessed. Rumours was when music overtook my life. As sick of Rumours as I am now, I owe(and blame) it all on Rumours! I taught myself guitar and keyboards(and drums) through my Rumours obsession. I guess because I burned myself out on Rumours(after I believe 10 copies - 5 8-tracks 1 album, 2 cassettes, 2 CDs). Tusk and Mirage mean more to me, now.
