I remember clearly, I was 15 at the time.
I had two older brothers that were obviously more advanced than me in so far as the 'new music' of the time.
I was lying in my room one day and I heard this music coming from my brothers room, it was almost alien, something I'd never heard before, and there was this melodic almost classical violin kind of sound, that can't be a guitar I thought?
And the voice of the guy singing, what the hell, his voice matched his guitar tone.
I walked into my brothers room and asked wtf he was playing, he said, "this is too advanced for you, you're still a kid (as he sucked on his joint)...this is a band Pink Floyd, now close the door when you leave".
Kabooom!...I was addicted.
Never mind Hendrix, Clapton, Beck, this is what defined a Stratocaster tone in my life.
I'm loving this version of the song
