Since I am in this sort of a mood.

What was the first record you bought?
What was the first concert you went to?

Yep, Tom was in there too. Delaney & Bonnie & Friends (with Eric Clapton) were scheduled but did not show. There was a band called Smith which had a current hit with a Lennon-McCartney cover called "Baby It's You". Also listed on the poster was a band I do not remember seeing which went by the name of Genesis; I have no idea whether that is the one which later became famous. I do know that Phil Collins was about 16 at the time and was appearing on George Harrison's "All Things Must Pass" as an uncredited tambourine player.

Genesis didn't tour the US till around 73.
