Whitesnake's Here I Go Again (1987 Version). John Sykes made me realize I loved nasty guitar riffs, David Coverdale made me want to sing, and Tawny Kittan made me realize sexy women existed! Keep in mind that I was only in 7th grade then! :-)

Dokken - In My Dreams

When I heard that song (saw the video), George Lynch became my idol, and I wanted to play guitar.

Magic Man by Heart

It made me realize that women could ROCK, and I wanted to become Ann Wilson, lead my own band and tour the world. Things didn't turn out that way, but this song was the catalyst that made me get into hard rock and heavy metal.

Man, that is hard. I have been thinking about this for days and didn't post because I had to really think about it.

It had to be "Turn Up The Night" by Black Sabbath or "I Don't Know" by Ozzy.

Awww. I was in a band for just a short while waay back in the 80s, and the only instrument I can play is...my voice. :wink: Checking out this message board is starting to inspire me, though. I'd like to play guitar.
