Strawberry Fields was first, but I probably didn't realize it. ITCOTCK was the album that took me for a ride, as far as figuring out what a tron was.
There was this time with my mom, I was probably 14 years old. We were in Allentown PA for some reason and I wanted to walk by Crest Music Center to see if it was open. It was not. I could see in the back of the store an M400 sitting there, and I just longed to play it. I still have that vivid memory. The M400 felt so exotic to me. I was so into British RnR and the tron felt like England to me.

First was probably 'Strawberry Fields', like an awful lot of people.
