Who influenced your music tastes when you didn't have the power to choose what

[*Carlos* to the Extreme]

was playing on the stereo? My parents both had good taste in music, from Santana and Boston, to Barry White and Marvin Gaye even Disco music, I particularly liked Stevie Wonder when I was young. I also looked up to my older cousins, and young uncle who had vinyls by AC/DC, REO Speedwagon, Peter Frampton, Toto, Def Leppard, Quiet Riot, Ozzy, Iron Maiden, Supertramp, Foreigner, Cheap Trick, Grease, Soundtrack for Star Wars IV, among others. And of course the early days of MTV in 1981-82 where a big influence on me with stuff by Billy Joel, Duran Duran, Fleetwood Mac, The Cars, etc...

What's your story?

Just feeling nostalgic. Thanks for sharing.
