What's the first music anyone can ever remember hearing in their lives?..

I remember three things that used to get played in our house. I guess I was about three or four years old.
A Burt Bacharach record called 'Reach Out',an album of Ennio Morricone music written for the classic Clint Eastwood trilogy The Good The Bad & The Ugly, A Fistful Of Dollars and For a Few Dollars More, played by Hugo Montenegro & his Orchestra...And a Beatles EP that had Love Me Do, From Me To You, Please Please Me and I Wanna Hold Your Hand.

Any time I hear any of this stuff I get taken right back to those really early times in my life before I even started school, when everything was brand new and exciting and I had not a clue of any of the difficulties that lay ahead in life...Sometimes it can make me feel really safe..or a bit melancholy.. or even downright spooky, but whatever feeling I get, it always has a some sort of effect on me...

Elvis and 'Victory at Sea' on 45's - my mom had tons of Elvis and Patriotic songs (My Greatgrandpa and Grandpa were high ranking vets)

In Elementary school KISS and Led Zepplin on vinyl- my uncle worked for a local heavy metal/hard rock station - I'd go hangout and watch him spin vinyl

The first music I can remember hearing in our house was church hymns and classical. My mom was a Minister of Music at our church so I grew up hearing all the usual hymns and stuff. Dad had a big reel-to-reel tape machine he got in Japan right after the war (WWII). He had recorded a LOT of concerts that the USO put on, 50's and 60s stuff.

The first album I remember buying for myself was Edgar Winter Group "They Only Come Out At Night". "Frankenstein" ROCKS!!!
