QotD: A Life-Changing Work of Art
What work of art (film, book, record, whatever) changed your life?
Submitted by bodhibound.
The summer was 1984.
Life's latest discovery was named Puberty.
The location was my super-hot, insulated (isolated) attic.
The memories were listening to my tape copy in my Walkman, dropping the needle on my warped record copy, wondering why "God" wasn't on the album (vocal or instrumental version), visualizing "Nikki" in more ways than one, playing the end of side 1 backwards, wondering where the bass line was on the first track on side 2... and why it was so funky.
The genre was ironically Soundtrack.
The artist was Prince. The record was Purple Rain.
