@lee I bought Tales Of Ordinary Madness when it came out and still have it. 1993? I think that was the year.
Then in 1994 I bought the debut album of Gov't Mule. Mother Earth is my favorite track.
The Doors, Zeppelin, Allman Brothers Band, Bad Company, Boston, Van Halen, Skynyrd, Outlaws, MTB, Kansas, Rush, and B-O-C sounds about right.
