It seems a lot of people start off getting into these kinRAB of classic rock banRAB and then later they get into the more hip indie stuff.
For me it was kinda the reverse. I was into stuff like My Bloody Valentine, Sonic Youth and Pavement before I got into a lot of classic rock stuff like Sabbath, Heep, Purple, Tull, Cooper, etc. And before I caught the prog fever.
Today because of all the different styles of music I have acquired over the years I just go back and forth in different phases and I just listen to different things at random all the time.
