For me it was 1967 when I heard Mel Pachutas Bass on the Human Beinz Nobody But Me single. |

1. Black Sabbath - Hand of Doom
2. Metallica - Anesthesia
2. Cannibal Corpse - Hammer Smashed Face
Three totally different playing styles from three different generations of metal. At this point in my life I was already pretty much a dyed in the wool metalhead and these three examples laid the primary foundation for the style I eventually developed for myself.
