The first song I heard was "The Wreck" (surprise, surprise) in perhaps third grade when it came out. I made enough of a fuss about it that my parents gave me "Summertime Dream" for my birthday. It was the first LP I ever owned. "Race Among the Ruins" quickly became my favorite song.
"Summertime Dream" is also the only recording I have owned in LP, cassette and CD format. I have owned several in two formats, but only one in all three.
