ROGER McGUINN

singer-guitarist with rock band the Byrds

“I guess the first album that I bought was Elvis Presley’s record that contained the song ‘Heartbreak Hotel.’ I loved that song so much that I asked my folks for a guitar and got one for my 14th birthday.

“Before that I had just bought 45 rpm singles. The 33 1/3 LP was wonderful, and it was great to have all those songs on one record for the first time.”
