Great idea

.
OK,i've told it enough times

,but here it is again.....
How I discoverd Meat Loaf.
It was about 1989.I was about twelve years old.
I was just sitting round on the living room floor bored out of my skull,THEN,an advert came on TV.It was a Woolworths advert promoting their music department.There were a few clips of songs.There was this one guy dressed in a pin stripe buisness suit playing air guitar with his umberella and in the back ground this amazing voice screamed at me LIKE A BAT OUT OF HELL I'LL BE GONE WHEN THE MORNIN' COMES.
I'd listened to some music and had a few songs I liked but i'd never really taken much notice of music.This just blew me away.I just sat there stunned and thought I've got to hear more of that sound.
Next time we were in the city centre I pestered my mum to buy me a meat Loaf tape with Bat Out Of Hell on it.We went to Woolworths and found a compilation with the live at Wembley 1987 version on it.
I listened to the rest of the songs and something just clicked

.
The rest as they say is history.

Thanks Meat for all the great music.
Thanks Woolies for the introduction
