Thank You ____ For Introducing Me To ___?

Simple! Just talk about an artist that either opened your ears to another artist that you got into just as much if not more after being introduced through a cover, mention, listed influence, etc.!

I'm becoming more and more of a Nick Cave fan everyday and it started with this exceptional cover by artist Lissie of "The Ship Song"!

Lissie-The Ship Song


After that I looked up Nick Cave followed by listening to the whole "The Good Son" album which I had an instantaneous liking too! Since I've been listening to artist discographies I've started the Nick Cave one and already have a new favorite off of his first album with "Shivers". My love for this artist is slowly expanding more and more and it comes from a cover from a newer artist that I'm also obsessed with even though the two artist aren't even that much alike.

^^You know more about Nick Cave than I do Sooty...never dug into his music even though I've run into quite a few fans of his over the years in music forums.

I always get him mixed up with Nick Drake for some reason.

I've even mixed up the names as Sunny caught me doing in one thread!

Too tired to think of any right now, but I might have something tomorrow morning when I'm at my peak.

You'll have to wait but my footprint is in here for now at least.

After listening to "Black Mountain Side" from Led Zep I, I read up about the tune and got interested in Bert Jansch. Jimmy was a huge fan of Bert's guitar work.

Which in turn led to me getting into John Renbourn and on to Pentangle.
