The first one for me was AC/DC's "Back In Black". That is the album that ignited my passion for this music, and it will always be one of my favorites.

The rumour was that Gene Simmons was instrumental in the rise of Van Halen. If you read the credits on the back of the first Van Halen album you will see that they mention him - just a bit of trivia for ya.

There's a demo floating around of Van Halen's first album that was supposed to be produced by Gene I believe.

Jaime, Piece of Mind was my 2nd metal cd. I bought the day after I got Screaming for Vengeance! Since then Priest and Maiden were always at the top!
